Don't forget to give yourself some down time!
Our friend from across the planet, Bush Babe, came up with the idea of throwing a virtual party to celebrate the completion of Debby's chemo treatments. Since Bush Babe's blog is serving as party central for this shindig, please stop by and leave a comment. Thanks, BB.
I discovered Debby's blog early last year, and I quickly found myself drawn to her writing and her takes on life. She could be touching, and she could be howling funny. But then, things took a dramatic turn for Debby in September of last year: she learned she had breast cancer.
I was sticken by the news. I found myself hoping that Debby would prevail in her battle, and that someday we'd see her blogging regularly again. But a "funny" thing happened. Debby never stopped. She kept writing. She kept sharing her life. She shared her lows, she shared her hopes, and she managed to keep a grip on her sense of humor. She continued to show us that she's a remarkable writer. She shared her journey with us, and I for one feel the richer for it.
Thank you Debby, and God bless you.

Oh, Hal! Thank you so much. I was so surprised when I saw what BB had set up. This is really touching, and I feel like bawling. Thank you. What a send off!
PS That dog in the first picture? He looks exactly like I feel!
THanks Hal... you are a gem!!
Take no notice of Deb and her threats to cry (it's her party after all... isn't there a song?)... we're gonna make her smile if it kills us!!!
Hugs

I'm glad I saw that Hal had a new post and read this. How cool to have a virtual "end of chemo" celebration party complete with dancing animals!
Debbie, you're a brave, courageous woman and Hal, you da man! XOXO
Hey - how did our Eddie get over there to stretch on your lounge?
Enjoying the party.
Woo hoo!! So long chemo ... Debby you're a true inspiration.
Party!!!!!!
I'm likin' this party, Hal! Debby, I've got a Margarita ready for you!!
Hi Hal!
Looks like the party is in full swing over here. When does the dog put on the lampshade?

It's a sweet idea for a great occasion!
I might be alone on one thing though. That first dog photo is a little disturbing to me and I don't know why.
What a wonderful post for Debby! Have a glass of the bubbly and celebrate the day!
Algernon - dogs that can't control their liquor intake are always disturbing.
Jeanie - you cat has a passport. You didn't know?
