CouRAGE

failure turns to fuel.
disappointment to desire.
my tears to tenacity.


couRAGE isn't beautiful.
couRAGE isn't glory.
couRAGE is sometimes ugly.

"show me a man who has never failed....
and I'll show you a man who has never tried"

we need to fall.
scrape my knee.
make me bleed.

I'll be better than you.
stronger than you.
faster than you.

Because if you make me fall nine times... you're only making me get up 10.

Battles are WON, Still Working on the War

I'm all strapped up and ready for action.
(Although I'm usually the one bleeding at the end of each day!)



I've been fighting this virus and I've won several battles this week!!

• My mouth/throat ulcers are {almost} gone.
• We {luckily!} found a blood clot in my arm before it could pass into my heart or brain. <Yikes>
• I've had three successful nerve Infusions.
• I'm thoroughly re-hydrated after Wednesday's puking fest. 

(VIDEO FROM WHAT THE BLOOD CLOT DID TO MY ARM) 

And the biggest VICTORY of all; I have the best squad anyone could ever ask for. I would go to the trenches with my family and friends ANY day of the week.



So grateful.
Battles are won, but I'm still working on the War.
