surgery

Now that chemo is over, its time for surgery. The question remains, where? when?

Mum's not so thrilled with the idea.

Done with Chemo!!:)

Thank you God. Mum is done with chemo.

I am happy that she has been able to endure the stress of chemo. But the fatigue has got her this time.

She is really weak. I can't stop calling. I wish I were there to hold her hand and massage her feet or at least help her up the stairs.

God please be with my mum.

Gift of family!

'I am blessed', that is what I thought to myself as I walked on N street in DC this afternoon.

An hour earlier, I had spent about 2 hours talking with my family, laughing and just sharing. My mum, sisters, my nephew Jordan.

I am lucky. I have family that I talk to, who get me, who listen, who share who support me, who are loyal to me all the time. I am wealthy and abundantly blessed.

And I owe all this to God. He knew me before I knew myself. He looked at the most beautiful woman, the most handsome man, the most brilliant minds he had created. He considered the wealthiest families, the most powerful in the land and He thought to himself, 'who would Ruth be the happiest with?' And of all of them, He chose my parents. Had he asked me, I probably would have picked the wealthiest. But He knew me better than I knew myself coz He knew that as I grew up and became more whole as an individual, I would always choose love before any of the others. He knew that having a family that loves and accepts me unconditionally is what I consider wealth. He knew that is the only thing that matters to me. Thank you God. You made me the wealthiest girl ever, without me asking. That is why I surrender all to you. I know you will always have my back. I trust that you have my best interests at heart and may your will be done in my life, career, family, personal life. You are God and I give it all to you.
