No matter how hard I try, I can't leave the stress behind... In five years, I've gone through eight chemo treatments, check-ups at first every three months,and then every six months. I've watched parts of my wife "disappear" - from her body and then from children because they can deal with what is going on. I've sat in numerous waiting rooms across southeast Nebraska and even eastern Iowa, wondering will this be the "miracle" surgery. Just when I started to release the anxiety from cancer, along came a car crash and a whole new experience and doctors and hospitals followed. I'm tired... when do the strong finally surrender? We knew a couple, who were always nice and friendly. She, too, had breast cancer. For nine years, we watched them struggle, but they always kept moving forward. She passed away last year at the age of 46. I'm just not sure how much more strength I have and I'm starting to worry about how much more strength my wife has... my legs are getting tired, my feet feel like concrete, but somehow I'll keep moving forward, because there isn't a doubt in my mind that if the roles were reversed, she'd be doing the same for me... please Lord, give me strength...
