    nihahi, I emailed you my contact information.

    Kristine, strong chi coming from your hometown to NJ. Heal, my friend! Please let us know how you are doing when you can.

    Love all the pics, everyone. I have four(4) sisters one in Dallas and three in Atlanta, and they took turn taking care of me post stage I surgery. I love them all. Love my flapper sisters too.

    My sister was 5 years younger than me.  I lost her to a sudden illness 2 years ago. It was right after I had just finished mastectomy, chemo, & radiation. She was my only contact with my past & we shared everything. I broke out with shingles a month after she passed away. I miss her every day & have to stop myself when I think, "I need to ask/tell Judy about..."  Still sad. 

    I have asked all my prayer warrior friends to pray for Bluebird, as I continue to do also.

    Your sisters are beautiful! Love love love!  Thank you for your flowers, Movie. Extra hugs to those who have lost your sisters......and brothers....my baby brother passed when he was 7 and I was 10. 

    Thinking of Bluebird as she recovers and figures out what is next. We are here for you, sister Bluebird!

    Also checking in to see how Bluebird and everyone is doing. She has certainly been through a lot. 

    Jeannie, I just know something is coming your hubby's way. SOON. 

    My only sibling and sister is 3 years older. I was diagnosed with BC first. I am 11 years out and she is 6 years out. We are very different, but I love her to death. 

    Nihahi- sending info.  We should have this for September too and then we can mass email.

    Tammy, sweet idea. I think we should all change our profile pic to the bluebird to show our solidarity in prayer for Bluebird. I'm changing mine now.

    Save the pic to your device with a right click or holding down in the pic until you get the save option. Different for different devices. Go to your BCO.org profile, click settings, go to your avatar setting, click on choose existing option, then pick our sweet bluebird.

    I am a sleuth. Kristine's last name is Gross. Believe it or not I saw that on the pic she shared of the medal her cousin sent her after he won a race. He addressed it to Krissy Gross. I have also found her husband through a search.

    Movie, do you want to call him for us?  Rather than all of us call. She is also on Facebook as Bluebird Acres. Let's all go ask her to be our friend!

    Sleuth Sharon also found Bluebird's work website. (My sister that passed away taught me my sleuthing skills. God I miss her so much!)

    I even went to Bluebird Acres on Facebook & tried to find out if any of her friends or family had posted updates on Kristine, but all had their posts hidden.

    Tammy, I had just thought of changing my avatar when I saw you had beat me to it. Great minds do think alike. CSI is fitting, ha!  I also gave the avatar idea to another thread Bluebird is a member of. I have been in tears thinking of her.  

    I have a sorority sister that had breast cancer a few years ago & had a brain tumor removed last year. It was a different cancer from her breast cancer & not aggressive. They removed it & she is doing fine now.  Praying it is the same for Bluebird. #Godwatchoverbluebird #thisisnotfair

    Okay....I put my big girl panties on a few moments ago, and dialed Bluebird's home #.....talked to her DH, and he told me that Blue had just come home.......the Dr. told him that they got ALL of the tumor, and DH says she is doing very well.  He said that she would probably return(here) in the next day, or so.  I told him that Blue had a whole bunch of women praying for her, and to tell her that we were thinking of her, and that we loved her.    

    I was very nervous to make that call, but I am SO glad I did!  Hooray for Bluebird!   Happy

    If any of you would like to send her an actual card, PM me or Sharon1942......

    Love you ladies!
