<p>new poster too–I’m a little late, but working on it!</p>
<p>Adding:</p>
<p>{{{LTS’ daughter}}}</p>
<p>(again, bending the posting guidelines because in this instance, LTS needs all our love as a collective community that is behind her all the way and we gotta send this love across the miles)</p>
<p>Incredibly moving. I am honored to be a junior member of this community. Marvelous idea, sax. Thanks.</p>
<p>Thank you for the wonderful stories, keymom and martharap.</p>
<p>And thank you for starting this, sax.</p>
<p>Humble prayers from LI too.</p>
<p>This is a good time to quote LTS’ original post about her diagnosis:</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>REMINDER:</p>
<p>LTS = LONG TERM SURVIVOR</p>
<p>Feel the love, LTS, and BELIEVE!</p>
<p>When I was a child
I lived by the sea
And wondrous things,
It whispered to me.
The roar of the breakers
The touch of the tide,
Would hint of the stories,
It held deep inside.
I’d sit by the sand
And dream away
Of castles and princes
And fair play.
Castles of sand
And castles of time,
Can’t bring back the days
When the sea was mine.
But oh, just once more
How I long to be
The child that I was
And live by the sea.</p>

<p>peace …LTS …so sad…so sad…</p>
<p>No sadness!!!
Channel love, joy and hope</p>
<p>welcome back to prayer NYMomof2 
Powerful, powerful stuff
and welcome to all the first posters. Strength in numbers, LTS, strength in numbers.</p>
<p>“…I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.” </p>
<p>Sax-great job</p>
<p>When it came time to pray for LTS, somehow I was moved to change the mode to something I am sure she would approve of…</p>
<p>I just got back from driving my 2006 Mustang GT down the Big Sur coast into a foggy twilight evening, CD blasting an assortment of upbeat 1960s rock, wearing my red chuck taylors converse sneakers… (I was saving them for the hurdles but tonight seemed like the night to break them in)</p>
<p>Hold that imagine in your mind LTS - and know that you were with me all the way down… and Harry the sea otter at Point Lobos waved hello just to you…</p>
<p>scualum – I think you were there for all of us! Sounds amazing.</p>
<p>First post here and this thread is as moving as it is awesome. I’m saying my prayers as well.</p>
<pre><code> “God there is nothing today that you and I cannot handle.”
</code></pre>
<p>LTS, Best wishes for very good outcomes on all counts.</p>
<p>LTS- please feel the strength of loving thoughts and healing prayers. May you have a peaceful night and a joy filled day to come.</p>
<p>Thanks, Marite. </p>
<p>Will pray and send good thoughts tonight and tomorrow, along with everyone else. (Keymom, my favorite prayer is the Hail Mary as well–always has been.)</p>
<p>LTS, have a peaceful night. I continue praying for more good news to come.</p>
<p>I’m delurking to add my thoughts and prayers for LTS and her daughter.
I hope you have a peaceful night.</p>
<p>Positive thoughts for LTS’s health.</p>
<p>Marite, please let LTS’s D know there is a HUGE throng of folks out her supporting her and her mom. If she wants to join, she is welcomed with many, many open arms and much love.</p>
