Mark, after sprucing up his apartment

Just received this touching note on Marks blog..

Dear Mark!!

No matter what the doctors and the tests may say DO NOT GIVE UP!!!
Miracles still happens today. In May of this year I will celebrate 5
years of breast cancer survival. I was given 50% chance to survive. I
just went through a devastating divorce, found myself penniless, but I
decided that I did not want to die. I told my doctors and others that
I still had people to see, places to go,and dreams not yet realized.
So I went on with my life,went through a mastectomy, along with
chemotherapy and radiation. I also continued on living by going to
college, thinking positive thoughts and claiming positive affermation.
Most importantly i put my trust and faith in God. In May (just few
months from now) I will graduate with a Bachelor Degree in Social Work
and with minors in Italian and Psychology as well. I just celebrated a
birthday in November and I am now 54 years young.

I recall one particualr morning right after my surgery. I woke up
around 2:00 a.m. in terror. I thought and said to myself,”I am going
to die… and… NO I WANT TO LIVE.” As I made that statement I felt a
complete peace coming upon me. I fought the fear and doubt with faith
in God and negative thinking with positive ones.

Mark, you can make it!!!!! You are going to be in my daily prayers and
I am standing with you believing for a MIRACLE!!

Live Mark and do not die!!! It is not yet your time to go!!

LOVE YOU!!!!!

Freda
