New Way to be Human

Nov. 18 2004, my Mom was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer. I started this blog to chronicle her journey. July 19, 2005 she gave her life in the battle. This blog is my place to process through the journey I walked along with her, and now my journey through grief. It's also a place to discuss the effects cancer has on the lives it touches--survivors and caregivers alike. I'm a Navy wife, a Mom, and my mother's daughter now and forever.

Willie Nelson

I always thought it was weird that Mom liked Willie Nelson so much.

All of a sudden I want to listen to "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain," and "Poncho and Lefty" over and over again.

She's still making me look at things a second time, and changing my tastes.

Ok Mom--but the intro to "Poncho and Lefty" is still really cheesy.

    I got your comments on my blog and decided to pop over and check out yours. Thanks for the thoughtful responses, and for your bare honesty here on your own blog.

    "New Way to be Human," by the way, is the title of a song by one of my favorite bands, Switchfoot. Any connection?

    Yep! Though I don't have a t-shirt to say it, "I like Switchfoot."
