Dearest Phil,
I had a fear of death before having a near death experience some 25 yrs ago. I am no longer afraid. I have cancer and had to stop working as a result. My journey is a long way to go but I know we are here for a time like this. Our purpose is unknown to us be He knows
Oh sweet Phil, I too am a cancer patient, I have not been blessed to have my cancer gone as long as you were, mine was only 8 months. And I continue to fight. Going on 4 years. But what I do know is when I am done with this life I will be taken home to the spirit world and will be reunited with family and those I knew as a spirit before I came to earth and received my body. You didn’t come into this world alone you came with your spirit guide and you won’t return alone your guide will be there to take you back home when it is your time. And it is a home with love that cannot be described, a more beautiful place than this world. May this bring you peace.
Zero months here. Scan today to see how much is left and current spread. Do not want to hear the results...
Peace for all of us.
Going thru similar experience. I go to treatments & appointments alone as much as possible. I don’t want my illness to affect my (adult) kids until it absolutely must
Two of the most genuine people I know sharing life in recovery, including the very hardest part. The human condition can be so difficult, but I see incredible beauty and love here. Phil and Sandy, I do not know how you got through this session. You are loved. You are supported. If I could help either of you in any way please know I would.
I'll bring you anywhere anytime
Get in the Word of God
