The Words Are Lost - written by Heather Leigh Cameron - October 15, 2014

The Words Are Lost - written by Heather Leigh Cameron October 15, 2014 Finding the right words not knowing what to say. Struggling for definitions that are lost within the mind yet yearning to be spoken. Where am I, who am I, what do I want? I don't remember how live each day. Not knowing where to travel to but wanting to go off somewhere. Therein lies a hidden danger. Cancer is evil; a tool devised by Satan created to rob the minds of dignity and knowledge. Trained to be aggressive and kill as fast as possible. Without emotion, without a care in this world only to destroy the quality of human life as it is known. Fight as you might, the outcome is unknown. Just know that the fighters are never alone. Divine and earthly help is ready and waiting to lift the heavy burdens and sorrow from the plate. Those who ask will feel strength be brought unto them. The words are lost in the abyss of the mind. Once spoken easily, now almost impossible to find. A...

The Fight Within Cancer - written by Heather Leigh Cameron

The Fight Within Cancer - written by Heather Leigh Cameron Rubbing the back of one who is dying takes fortitude and compassion to be given without crying. Ribs can be felt clean through; the tumors feel like stones of jello. All the love in your heart and the tears you hold back Working to make sense as to why life is out of whack. Cancer must die, not continue to freely kill. In this lifetime it must, if only it be God's will. When the disease strikes you or one close to the heart. Panic is not the way, but calmness is a start. For some it will kill, but others fight on. All in the same battle, must keep on enduring strong. Time passes on, yet trials keep coming and going. Faith must be had for the victory to be gained. Never give up, in your course keep walking forward. All will be done according to the way of the Lord. (c) Heather Leigh Cameron. October 12, 2014.

October 8, 2014 - Caregiver stress

-
Being a caregiver to someone who is dying of a serious illness is exhausting and at some point, a lot of dying people need to go into care of have respite help because the caregiver or caregivers cannot handle the job anymore or they are burnt out from all the work. It is very rude when an outsider refers to the caregiver or caregivers as selfish and disgraceful for wanting to put the dying family member into care because providing the care is proving overwhelming. If outsiders want a say in the care of a dying person, they need to be willing to provide assistance to the family instead of just sitting on the outside and trying to tell the family of the dying person how to manage things. This story comes because my dad's best buddy, Steve Grainger of Lethbridge, visited and during his visit, I mentioned that my mom was tired and thinking of putting my dad in a community bed at Good Sams so she could rest, as caretaking was exhausting. Steve called me disgraceful and rude for sayin...
