I usually try to respond to all comments on my blog, but I have not done very well the last couple of weeks. The truth is, I've been a bit distracted. If you only like happy, cheery, quilty topics, please feel free to move on to another blog today.
It's not always sunny in my life. A few weeks ago, I was slipping back into depression, although not nearly as bad as this time last year. And that's when life was good! Last week, Mr. QD was diagnosed with cancer. I won't regale you with all the details, but we now know that his type is typically very easily treated. He'll be having surgery within the next couple of weeks, and we're hoping that's all that will be needed. We live in a small town, so he'll be going to the very well known Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, so I'll be putting some miles on my car.
I don't often share a lot of my personal like here, and I know that some people think blogs should always be happy. But I've made some good friends through blogging, and I want my friends to know why I might not be commenting on your blogs, and where I'll be if I disappear for a few days. I'll always have my trusty laptop by my side, but I don't know if I'll have wifi access. I use blogging as a distraction from the real world, so I'll probably still be reading blogs, and looking for inspiration. But I've found that my attention span is about 12.5 seconds.
If I owe you something for a swap or exchange, rest assured that I plan to fulfill all obligations. I've asked one hostess to pass on a message that I may be a little late,
If you've made it this far, thank you my dear friends!

You and Mr QD will be in my thoughts. The treatment may be rough on you both but if it works that is all that counts in the long run. I think you need to be able to share the bad with the good and if people are true friends then they will take the bad as well. Try to keep positive ( hard I know ) and know that you have my good thoughts coming your way.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear this bad news. Life can be very unkind. You are both in my thoughts. Hugs.

I agree with Kate. Take one day at a time and as your husband walks through this valley, be sure to take care of yourself as well. God bless you:)
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear the news. Try to keep positive, I KNOW how hard that can be. Sending you prayers and strength! xoxo

ReplyDeleteYou and your husband are in my prayers Sunny. Your blogger friends are here to lend our shoulders if you need us. Many hugs to both of you.
ReplyDeletethings can't always be sunny. You've entered a cloudy time, you are so lucky to have each other. My DH and I went through something like that when he had a heart attack, our son was 15 months old, I would go from work to hospital, home to put the baby to bed with Nana, then back to the hospital to sleep, then up again to feed the baby and back to work. Day after day. We got through it, you will too. People you don't even know are praying for you and wishing you well, it does help! Thank you for your blog, take some time away then come back to us.
ReplyDeleteAs said before, you and your loved one will be in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteBlogs are not only for happy moments, it can be for comforting moments too!
Take one day at a time and have joy and pleasure of each laughter.
Have hope!
Warm wishes
Gina
I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to share your news and the difficult times your husband is facing. I think it helps others know they are not alone in their own struggles. (I have suffered from bouts of depression more than once in my life and feel your pain along with you.) You and your husband will be in my thoughts and prayers and please feel free to lean on your blogger friends for support!
