Received not one but two cards today From Linda Lattanzi!

The first card was very personal along with a gift and this second card is something that needs to be shared with all.  Thank You Linda!


Cancer Cannot...

Cancer isn't prejudice
It doesn't discriminate from me to you;
It changes life in one split second,
But here's what it cannot do.....

It cannot take our courage or strength,
Our willingness to persevere;
It can't take our spirit or faith,
Our hope that a cure is near.

It cannot take our persistence or patience,
Our ability to walk with pride;
It can't take our self respect,
As we fight for every stride.

It cannot take our sights or dreams,
Our wishes it cannot shatter;
It can't take our memories,
Our account for what truly matters.

It cannot take our integrity or mind
Our willingness to feel alive;
It can't take our continuous prayer
Our belief that we will survive.

Hugs, Rosie

Prayer Request for Rose


I just got the biopsy report from my Dermatologist office and it is confirmed to be a Basal Carcinoma located on my right side about four/five inches above my waist right under the bra area.  It has been there for about three years and each year my doctor kept saying, it was nothing but this last appointment he decided it needed to be tested. The biopsy was not too uncomfortable.

I will be having surgery on Friday, April 10th at 11:00 AM

I'm always requesting prayers for others and now I need them.  I do believe in the power of prayers.

Diane Whiles (Peter Zaccone's girlfriend) offered to take me to the doctor's office, wait in the waiting room until the surgery is over and then drive me home.  Is that sweet or what!  Bless her for being such a good friend.  I, normally do not like to impose on anyone but her offer is a blessing.  I'm a tad nervous, make that alot nervous!

The doctor is going to do the surgery in his office, so I won't be knocked out.  I hope he numbs it real good.  I have a high tolerance to pain but I prefer not to be in any pain.

I will post again after the surgery is over.  Thanking you all in advance, as I know I have all your prayers because you are the best friends evah!  

Hugs, Rose
