My initial burst of energy after by new lease on life is slowly fading and I am getting back to basics. Each day, I have at least a few guests that I try to rally for. Right now, I have my dearest friend Christine here from California. She and I have been friends for so long and and seen so many different things.
I also have many different plans I want to get started on. But already I can see the limitations my body is placing on what I can get done. I have fallen asleep at least 20 times since starting this piece (including full-on head jerks). I am achier than I have been in past and I just feel a little bit more “sick” than I have in the past. I think this time I know there is a very real drum beat we are working against this time. No more illusions created by denial. I have real work to be done and limited amounts of time to dod rk r=
Lifting!! Sending love light and energy..
Much love.. get going girl!
Shannon, sending so much love and heartfelt peace to you. You are such a beautiful soul and you have inspired me in so many ways. Like so many, I wish I could hug you and take away this hurt. I just wanted to let you know you are loved, from very far away… XOXO, Angie Connor
Your time for yourself and Emmie and Peter is precious and I know you all are giving each other strength. Sending love to Jack and Gretch too. I know you have given so much to many and gotten their acknowledgements that you have well deserved. I am so proud of you, your gifts to many and especially now be good to YOU! LOVE you MUCH!
You’re absolutely amazing. I’m just so proud of how tough you are.
Absolutely IN-F’ING-CREDIBLE You Are!!!

Also, my father-in-law is beginning his potential (probably) melanoma cancer journey with mapping on St. Patrick’s Day. His was 3mm.
For anything that it is at all worth, you will and are not alone in this. I feel Tahoe and tanning beds use will play a significant role in my relatively near (or sooner than that given my history with skin cancer) future, as in many others.
May the awesome riches and luck of the Irish be yours and my FIL’s!!!!!
xoxoxo
God, this just sucks. I am so sorry. I can only imagine what you’re going through, Shannon. You continue to inspire and humble me. That you take this time, w ith all that you persevere through and carry–and face, is something I, we all, marvel at. Thinking of you, you all. And loving you very much.
Thinking of you, and sending you all prayers!
Dear Shannon; I was talking with Stephanie Olson yesterday and received all these updates about you that are just…… just not what I ever expected to hear. You are a most special person and I have thought of you – pretty much constantly – since yesterday. Is company something you enjoy? If so, I would come for a short visit. Or, if it’s best to just share my thoughts through this blog, just know that I am there with you (virtually speaking). You are kind, loving, and oh-so-gifted. Your lovely personality radiates to all who know you. Much love….arlene stredler brown
Shannon- you and yours are on my heart. May there be “celebwations” and memory making each precious day of Bonus Time.
Maybe word prediction software would get you more words for your efforts? You probably have that already
