I told the people at work today about my cancer diagnosis. My colleagues, Sgt. Nick, Randy, Shannon, and Gloria were very supportive. My Sergeant will call the Chief tonight and fill him in on what's happening and how to proceed. After I told them, I went home, literally exhausted from the experience. I received an organic fruit basket from my sister, Dolly, to keep me healthy. I also received phone calls from my sisters Charlotte & JoJo and from my Niece, Heather. Heather said that she sent a package and I should be looking for it. When I picked up my mail, there it was! The package included a great bookmark that reads, "Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is~Emerson. Will do, Niece, will do. There are also two books; "Bald in the land of big hair" by Joni Rodgers and "Cancer Schmancer" by Fran Drescher. The card that came with the package was as awesome as the sender. It made me cry, but in a good way. I know I have an incredible support team; the women in my life. I love you all so very much.
