A Message From Sheri


Sheri asked that we post this "thank you" to all of you:


I am sitting here with so much to say, but I don't know where to start. 


I have CANCER…peritoneal cancer to be exact.  I haven't said that, that much…it sounds unreal…feels unreal too.  It has been probably the most difficult 2 1/2 weeks of my life.  I am 2 weeks post op today and thanks to the tireless efforts of Dr. Higgins and Dr. B.T. Heniford they got all visible tumor out of my abdomen.  I am feeling pretty good.  I am walking outside and enjoying the boys while I do it.  I am sleeping well and finally eating is becoming more appealing.  I haven't had a beer yet, but I am getting closer everyday!  I am trying to prepare myself for the journey ahead, I am scared, shitless frankly, but I am ready to get on with it!  I have not asked why too much, my main question is how.  How do I do this?  To be honest that is where all of you have come in….
I knew that all of you were amazing, I just could have never imagined how amazing!  I could never even imagine, in my wildest dreams, how to thank you all for your kindness, support, generosity, positivity, and unbelievable love that you have shown me and my family.  I AM THE LUCKIEST GIRL IN THE WORLD TO HAVE SUCH AMAZING FRIENDS AND FAMILY!  I know this is not going to be easy, but you all have lifted me up so much that I know I can do this!  I am determined to beat this and do it in a way that is fabulous, maybe with a pink wig or a tattooed bald head or just a never say die attitude!  Thank you all for being my cheerleaders, my shoulders to cry on, my ears to listen, and my hearts to love!  I love you all, so very much!  Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for everything!  Stay tuned…=


Sheri would love to have visitors; if you want to go by just shoot her a text to make sure it's a good time.

We'll update you soon as to what's coming up on the treatment front.
