Sis with stage 4 melanoma
Took my sister out looking for new undies. Her stomach is so tender from surgery #1 she can't stand 'feeling' anything there and the same after they removed all the lymph nodes from her right leg so she's been trying all different brands her right leg can tolerate (I've suggest thongs but shes' not goin' there
She has always taken care of everything in the house. We didn't know if her husband could even start a lawn mover
When I was there the other day. It had been quit sometime since I've been there because her treatments seem to be having more icky affects than when she first started.
While I was sitting at her kitchen table I looked out side and said "who in the he$$ did all of that?" She said, "Paul"....he put patio bricks around the whole back yard and planted her a huge flower garden....he does the upkeep and makes sure they are watered.
Well, we (my other sister and I) are not allow to cry infront of my sister. And I respect that. I can do all the crying I need to at home but when I saw that flower garden and she told me who had done it I just broke down in tears....they've been married for 33 years and I think he gave her the best gift possible blink

What a beautiful story. You needed to cryand they were happy tears and that is ok to do. God collects our tears in abottle and when it rains, those are tears coming down from heaven.
