I feel really sad that my favorite blogger is going to password protect his blog. I wished I really commented on his blog more than what I did then maybe I would stick out like a true blog friend. This does bother me since I truly enjoyed his blog and somehow felt connected. I hope by some miracle that I get invited to be a friend.
I rarely log onto one of my yahoo email account. I checked it hoping my blog friend would miraculously send me an invite. Instead of Andrew's email, I received one from someone that I consider an internet friend. Back in 2001, when I found out that I had breast cancer, I somehow became friends with a lady my age that was diagnosed the same time I was with the same stage of cancer. She lived in Long Island, NY and I lived in Williamsburg, VA. We never met but kept in contact by email over the years and I may have spoken to her once by phone. I am so sad to read her email of facing the worst of cancer spreading to her brain and spinal cord. She is wheelchair bound while having brain surgery/radiation/chemo. I have not responded to the email as I am terribly sad and need to get a grip and send her an email that will give some hope. Tonight I will be praying for those that suffer with cancer. I just never know what to say..

The fact that you are 'there' with her in spirit goes a long way. Cancer is so insidious -- a horrid, horrid disease.
Could you perhaps find your blogger friend with the new 'Invitation only' blog on Facebook? I know of an Andrew and am wondering if it's the same person.
Kathy, it was Andrew-4th Avenue Blues..I am happy to say that he has invited me. All it took was an email to him introducing myself.
Thanks for your positive comment. It means so much as I struggle to deal with the fear of a recurrence but I am clear and it has been 9 years.
Just coming back to confirm that Jonathan Mintner is Andrew of 4th Ave. Blues and saw your message to me!! Glad you've been invited.
Feel free to email me anytime.
PS I do know what you mean and glad you are clear. I had ovarian cancer 7 years ago.
