Please
“Please God don’t let my body fail again. I don’t think I could do this more than once. Please God I’ll do my best. I want to live until I’m too old, until I’m ready to go, until I can slip away peacefully. I face this thought and want to push it down and that’s what is so hard each day.
But I will eat cookies from time to time. And I will drink wine from time to time. I might have white bread or candy. Not much. But I will. And I will occasionally eat meat. My diet is excellent most of the time; salads, fruit, organic chicken, no soda at all, salmon, not much milk (just cream in my coffee). I swear I’ll do what I can. I will take vitamin D with calcium as instructed. Just don’t destroy me with breast cancer. Please.
Thanks God. I appreciate it.”
