They know they can survive," by Josephine Hart and wanted you to know that although I have no clue who you are nor will I ever meet you, I wanted you to know, my mother was recently diagnosed with kidney cancer (allbeit, not as severe as breast cancer) yet scary all the same... My mom and I have shared this one verse with one another to help us get through all the trials and tribulations we have both endured the past few months, besides the cancer, (which turned out to be the icing on the cake with all the other ridiculous hurdles in life thrown our way.) I wanted to share that verse with you, and hope you will pardon by intrusion if you are not a religious person - I believe it is beneficial for those who know God and those who do not... Psalm 46:10 "Be still and know that I am God." To add to this, Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 10:13, "God is faithful, and He will not let you be tested beyond your strength but with your testing He will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it." This is hard to see in times of severe physical pain, depression that physically makes one sick, and times when we some people would rather sulk and eat bon-bons while feeling sorry for herself instead of facing the harder truth; somehow, someway, we will always get through this hard time we are facing. Your post truly tugged at my heart, as you described your physical pain and lack of drive, although I do not know you - I wanted to take that pain from you and comfort you, even if it by Scripture you may not necessarily believe in. Good luck with your treatments and recovery and know that little ole' Rachel from Alabama is praying for your quick and painless recovery.
