Hi, We have not met but I’ve read your blog from time to time. I am also a brain tumor survivor/fighter. I was diagnosed at age 27. Wow, it’s been quite a ride two surgeries, lots of therapy and a baby 5 years later. It’s not been easy for sure but I am very encouraged by your own situation. God is so good, isn’t he? I am happy to call you a sister in Christ and I am glad to know that we will meet one day in His glorious presence. Keep fighting the good fight and hold onto your faith for you, your little ones, and all of those who read your story. I too, think often of the Apostle Paul with his thorn in the flesh. This has been my major thorn in the flesh that constantly reminds me that all is for his glory and none is of my own strength. It humbles me to think of that. Take care dear sister. I am so glad we have an everlasting hope.

Hi – I know you don’t know me but I know your folks & I’ve been keeping up on your life via your posting and have you in prayer. I appreciate your spirit, honesty and trust in our Lord. None of us know what a day will bring and you just have to appreciate each day for what it is or isn’t in some cases. My hubby is a brain tumor survivor (he was diagnosed in 1986) and it does change your life – over the years I have jokingly said we live life in the slow lane — and that isn’t all bad. I’ve learned that I can make all sorts of plans but I always factor in about a 25% margin that my plans will get changed, so that keeps me from being disappointed and reminds me that God’s ways are not my ways. Just want you to know that your good attitude is a testimony to the hope we have in the Lord and so glad to hear the tumor is decreasing. Enjoy today and your family to the fullest.

I just ran across your Diary entries here online and I have been so thankful that you, Clarisse, have taken the time to share your heart with the rest of the world out there. That really is a wonderful thing that you are doing. I havent talked to anyone who has a brain tumor…I had a stroke last October, a couple of days before I was to speak at a Christian gathering in Indiana…and later in Nov, a day before Thanksgiving after 23 seisures that they were calling stroke symptoms, I was then diagnosed with stage 2 oligodendroglioma. I have been happily absorbing all the information you are sharing. I am also the author of a book called. Itsing A God
Thing….MY SHEEP WILL HEAR MY VOICE…. wow…I sure am focused on HIM now . I will follow you Clarisse…I am thankful to have spent the past hour being encouraged by you. thanks again Linda Marie Irish
