A "WISH"

Mom,

I WISH I could take your place and breathe for you so you can relax.
I WISH I could take all the pain for you so you don't have to click the button.
I WISH for you to continue this FIGHT.
I WISH for you to come home soon to watch the birds on the new feeder I put up for you.
I WISH that God continues to give you and our family the strength, energy and love that we have.

We might have lost round 1 because of a technicality (the leak). I feel confident with the coaching that Dad, Jake, Jen, Steph, Lisa, Family, friends and I will give you, your going to take over in round 2. Keep fighting the "FIGHT".

Shawn, What beautiful thoughts and words. We all pray that God will grant these wishes for all of us to carry some of Kate's burden to lighten her load and give her the strength she needs for the next round. The first round was only a tie, not a knockout. Let's go Kate, Fight hard!

Love to all,
Deb
