I don't really know hippiemom except for her posts which I always enjoy and look forward to reading them again soon. She seems to be such a good soul. I had no idea she was going through such a troublesome time. Cancer is an ugly thing, such an ugly, ugly thing. I am sending you wishes for a speedy recovery and seeing you back in these parts soon, Hippiemom.
Also to Steppenwolf as I know all too well the anxiety and feelings of coping with a loved one's illness.
Take care.
Not for nothing, but just so I dont take or give credit for something not mine, this isnt a "true to my life thing", just a story I remember hearing over time and found touching. Be well hippiemom. Its time to shake the cancer off.
Fair enough...thanks for the honesty...its a beautiful story, and totally appropriate for this occasion

Hippiemom, for reasons beyond being near my spot on the political spectrum, has always seemed pretty cool to me. Good throughtful posts. I envision a tough woman with solid principles. All of this, and this thread, leads me to breaking my usual message board mannersim--I am going to follow this story closely and I really hope everything goes OK. Obviously, Hippiemom is an itegral part of our little MT community, but more importantly, there are obviously a lot of loved ones out there that need her.
Please get well soon, Hippiemom. I look forward to seeing your next post on...whatever.
I cannot come up with a new sig till I get this egg off my face.

all insanity:
a derivitive of nature.
nature is god
god is love
love is light
Hippiemom, i wish you all the best for a speedy recovery. You have been through so much already and are so strong to have gotten thru it. Continue to think positively and dont forget to smile it really does brighten up the soul
Here are some works by Eric Drooker, one of my favorite artists, that portray strong women, just like Laura. I thought she might enjoy these when she returns.

Please keep us updated steppen - you're doing a great job. :( What an absolutely horrible start to the week - I had NO idea. Please send her my love. She helped me out through a bad time once and I'd love to be able to do the same for her but distance kinda destroys the chances of that. All I can do is think about and pray for her - and as mookie suggested, I'd be willing to help whatever little bit I can financially if needed, but I'm sure that's the last thing on her mind at the moment. Tell her to hurry up and get back to us cos the MT will be empty until she does.

Hippiemom, this is just to let you know my thoughts are with you in your recovery. You'll make it out of this - I may only know you here, but I know enough to say you're far too kick-ass to let an illness keep you down for long.
Rest. Recover. Then come back here and grace us again. We all need your insight - it wouldn't be A Moving Train without you.

Good luck and we await your return.
She WILL get well soon. We all know she will... Laura isn't one to let even the worst of scenarios bring her down.

Theres not going to be an accoustic version of Blood or anything like that, so feel free to sit down.
