Attitude...

"You better change your attitude..."

Something a teenager hears quite often....and something important to remember.

One of my dear friends has been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer.

Went to her house before 9 am this morning to take her to her doctors appointment and her 3+ hour weekly chemo session.

When I walked in her house this morning....all smiles. When we walked into the waiting room...all smiles. We sat in our chairs laughing about our goofy friends, celebrity gossip, and just had fun sitting together.

She went in her appointment alone and sent me a text message when she was settled into her chemo chair so I could go back and sit with her.

I walked in the room, she was sitting in a bleak, cold, and quiet room....but, there she was, all dressed up in her fancy jogging suit, sparkly flip flops, covered with a giant soft faux mink blanket with her US Weekly in hand with the biggest smile on her face. She was all ready to go.

When the nurse poked her in the chest to start her chemo....that was the only time I saw her frown.

Clearly she has her down moments....but I really look up to her for keeping such good spirits in the wake of not such good news.

Attitude is everything.

So, if yours is bad....change it.

Pray for my friend.

Thanks :)
