Started From The Bottom Now We Here!!!

WHARRAP YA'LL????? Holla back at your girl!!! Don't stop gerrit, gerrit!!! Yeah ya!!! 4 cycles of chemotherapy completed!!! God is good all the time and all the time; GOD IS GOOD!!!  In case anyone forgot, that is my name!! CHIDINMA!!

LET ME CLEAR MY THROAT.....
I just want to take this moment to thank the almighty Father, because if it weren't for his loving grace, I sure wouldn't be here right now.

I want to thank my baby daddy, my 3 musketeers, my parents, my siblings, my CT, Chi-town, H-town & B-town crazy cousins, my great in-laws, my awesome nuclear, extended & adopted family, wonderful friends, great co-workers, Daughters of Grace Prayer Ministry (Spiritual nourishment for breakfast 5:30 am Sun - Sat) and every single one of you for holding me down, praying for me, yes lifting me up and interceding on my behalf. Calling me, visiting me, cooking for me, encouraging me, loving me; what can a Black chick say?  I'M BLESSED & HIGHLY FAVORED!

 Drs. Deckers, Tannenbaum, Namadoukyst, the entire UConn Health Center cancer center staff; THANK YOU. 

It has been a journey, and it is not over yet.  I get a "3 week" vacation, then I will undergo 6 weeks of radiation Monday - Friday.  However, through it all, I am grateful.  I have come to truly appreciate the little things in life and I am learning (still work in progress) how not to stress over everything.  More so I have learned that my plan A, B & C don't mean a thing if I have not placed God in everything and let him guide and direct me.

So in the words of Rev. Paul Jones (paraphrasing)

I've had some good days, I've had some hills to climb.
I've had some weary days, and some sleepless nights.

But when I look around and I think things over, all of my good days, outweigh my bad days;
I WON'T COMPLAIN!

The Lord has been so good to me, he's been so good to me; more than this old world or you could ever be. He dried all my tears away, turned my midnights into day, so I'll just say THANK YOU LORD, I WON'T COMPLAIN!!!

So the journey continues, thanks for travelling with me and helping me carry my bags.  They are getting lighter and lighter each day.

Stay blessed, live & love.  Smile more, laugh more.  Speak "life" into your situation, into your circumstances.  It's gonna be alright! Trust in God!  Really! Taste the Lord and see that he is good!  I am a living testimony of that. 

PSST!!!! HAVE YOU CHECKED YOUR BREASTS???

Remain blessed,
Chidi
