    To all my dear bc sisters, oh let's throw out the bc and just be sisters, our prayers have been rewarded by the baby Jesus, my go to, babe and Maureen's go to, the Blessed Virgin.  My friend has been living and working for 4 years on 2 to6 hrs of sleep, and 6 is very infrequent, She just PM'ed me she slept 8 yes 8 hrs. of sleep last night, a Christmas miracle for sure!!!!  She is shocked that she is still tired but I reminded her of the sleep deficit she has built up.  Our prayers answered, now we wait for one more Christmas miracle of our own, may our prayers be just as powerful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  love, Karen

    Hi dear sisters, I ask for your prayers for me to practice the Serenity Prayer, it is in my family, the problem, but it is not drugs or alcohol.  Jump in my pocket today so I may tap you when I need strength, love you all, Karen

    karen. All will be well. Have fun. Don't let anything or anyone get in the way of your happiness. It's their problem not yours. Have a wonderful evening and don't forget to pour a little chocolate martini in your pocket for the girls hiding in there. lol

    thanks for prayers. Update on my friend. He in ICU right now. They did a biopsy and relieved the pressure on the brain. They don't think the tumor is malignant but won't know until path report is complete. He will need another surgery. All seems to be good news

    Wishing all of my BC friends a happier & healthier New Year!   God knows we all need it!  Thank you for letting me be a part of your group & for your support when I was first diagnosed w/ this disease, as well as when the bottom fell out of my world.  

    Praying that 2014 will bring the answers I've been searching for & that I will find the courage to get on w/ my life.  

    Be safe & stay warm.

    Love, Linda

    PS.  Karen, I'm in your pocket too!

    Linda always room for you my dear, and whatever drink you  would like will come down to you.  I'd like you all in my R pocket so I know where to tap, otherwise I'll look like an idiot.  You are all a blessing in my life, hope the next year is a calmer one than 2013.  I lit my candle,B, B and Beyond's Sugar Cookies candle that Esther gave me on her last Christmas, I know she is our angel in heaven looking after all of us.

    Happy and Healthy New Year to all.

    I guess I have missed alot of things going on.  Prayers to friends and family members and to surgoens that are treating them.  Karen, I am in your pocket at all times.  Maureen, I hope your friend is doing better.  Linda, I wish you peace and happiness in 2014.

    I would like to ask your prayers for my girlfriend who has tried to commit suicide once again.  I found her on Monday night and am having a hard time getting the picture out of my head.  Praying that her mental health care professionals can help her this time for good. 

    Love, peace and happiness for all in 2014.

    Hugs, Cheryl

    p.s. can't wait to see all at lunch on the 11th. (correct date?)

    I had to go back and look myself, it is the 11th at 12:30, in Maureen's name.  Stay warm, stay safe sisters,we had a breakthrough yesterday, will fill you in at lunch.  Keep praying that the breakthrough comes to pass. I've had you on the knees for quite while, for those of us that cannot do the kneeling part, please sit.  Next crucial day is the 8th at 11.  Thanking all of you for your steadfast support and continuing prayer. love to you, Karen
