Taking one breath at a time, one after the other. None of us knows what you're going through. You have a situation that is unique from anyone else. You are the only Heather Everingham on the planet. Take in all of the encouragement and support your loved ones have to offer. There is only One who knows you and has the resources to meet your every need. He'll do that through His hands and feet in the body of Christ. And although it may be hard sometimes, all you need to do is breathe. Do that and you are strong and brave...love you!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09962978423926686073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222361623560628453.post-53789991687795038782011-08-04T18:20:18.770-04:002011-08-04T18:20:18.770-04:00Wow!

Maybe we took you for granted before you got sick and we are all realizing what a wonderful person that you are and have been.<br />We see your family and what they mean to us, and none of them would be what they are or will be without you. So, please push through this for all of us selfish people. You don't have to be brave and strong. <br />Just get well so that we can enjoy you and love you for a long, long time.Ron Sr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02373243811158900915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222361623560628453.post-29781679962112142092011-08-03T22:12:36.867-04:002011-08-03T22:12:36.867-04:00Hi Heather,

I'm so glad to read your post and the question that you pose on how we see you as strong, etc, it is a very good question! The answer is: It's based on you =) I might live far away and our communication is primarily on FB now but for me I've always known you to be a "go forth and getter done/have fun/support those you love/develop a hobby, believe in GOD and get the most out of every moment kind of woman" =) I know that life pre-this wasn't always a bed of roses, we all struggle with all kinds of things, but you show your love and compassion continuously and make it through to the next step =)<br /><br />Thank you for your honesty Heather, it's Golden!<br /><br />With love and prayers,<br />LaurieThe Zagorski'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10093738343599358692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222361623560628453.post-66452483487492174782011-08-03T21:23:41.189-04:002011-08-03T21:23:41.189-04:00What a long long day you have had.

There are a lot of people on this path with you who do love you. Try to find 15 mins a day to "meditate" even if you just sit and breathe. Repeating a prayer over and over for 15 mins allows your mind a "breather" of its own and encourages your body to send out messages that will help you. It is really the only, only advice I have to offer. <br />Rest and recuperate. And keep writing. We need your words.Caroline Shankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12016926699338243527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4222361623560628453.post-27896455720317772112011-08-03T21:07:40.472-04:002011-08-03T21:07:40.472-04:00You are stronger than you think.

You may feel like you want to cower in the corner, but you aren't. You're facing this head on. One step at a time. YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU THINK. The rest of your strength comes from that amazing husband of yours and all of your friends and family that are, as you say, lighting your way. And we're here, by your side, not going anywhere til you beat this thing. And you will beat it, you will keep fighting it because you're strong and brave. Just because you cry and you are scared of what yu have to go through doesn't mean you aren't brave, it just means you are human. I love you, no matter what, and I'm here, no matter what.Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01643487500354401113noreply@blogger.com
