Challenge's that's the key with this deployment. I have to embeded this in my head. I have to strive to the full extent. I can't give up on the little stuff.
I look at my step father that has prostate cancer. This man has fought and fought. And have I yet heard him say, " I give up!" No matter how much pain he is in and what the future holds for him he strives on. Living his day to the fullest. Even if his life is going to be shorten. He's a good man, with a great sole. He will do for others and never ask for anything. That's just his character. I belive also, he is still here for my mom. I think he knows she needs him. I have talked to my mom and have told her she needs to re-assure him you will ok and he can let go at anytime. But, really how do you say that to the one you love. I know I can't, I would have some guilt. My heart tells me that's why he hasnt let go~ those words are the key to him being painfree. Free from this nasty disease.

When I'm having a bad day I think of  him. What do I have to complain about.
