Comments on: Living on purpose http://www.tamiboehmer.com/2009/10/living-on-purpose/ Tami Boehmer's Blog Fri, 03 Feb 2012 17:12:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.2 By: Stephanie http://www.tamiboehmer.com/2009/10/living-on-purpose/comment-page-1/#comment-120 Stephanie Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:41:52 +0000 http://www.tamiboehmer.com/?p=474#comment-120 Rose's story is definitely a miracle story, and it continues as such. Rose volunteers tirelessly with the American Cancer Society for their annual 24-hour relay - a job which starts the day after each relay. Rose has worked to build Hope Lodge and is devoting her efforts with a committee to build a second lodge. She spends time there with cancer patients of all ages, baking cookies for the children, making sure that every need is met. Rose and I have been sisters for so many years now that I can't remember a time she wasn't in my life - and we've never met, except through e-mails and telephone calls. She is a strong and positive force in my life and the lives of so many others. Her answer to a need is to give before the need is even expressed. Love you, Rose. Richest blessings of the Goddess to you and your ever-growing family. Steph Rose’s story is definitely a miracle story, and it continues as such.

Czapp Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:47:18 +0000 http://www.tamiboehmer.com/?p=474#comment-118 Rose happens to be my baby sister and I have always been protective of her as you can well imagine. When she came down with the cancer I was truly frightened.I didn't know if she would survive or not but if I would bet on anyone making it through it would be her. She fought as hard as ever a human could fight. She always says that I am her hero but in truth she was the one who was inspirational. She showed me that the spirit can endure all sorts of attacks but she never lost her sense of humor or her purpose of driving this cancer from her body so that she could return to her family and her precious baby Despite the odds and after nearly 8 months in the hospital she returned to a somewhat normal life and to this day despite her pain as a result of treatment she still has her sense of humor and her love for her family. She is a tireless worker to help raise funds for cancer research and maybe most of all she is a life lesson in courage and determination to never ever give up and never stop pursuing a cure..

I knew that she is a cancer survivor, but didn't know that the treatments resulted in the back issues she has today. Rose is an earth angel. Even though we have never met in person, she and I have been exchanging emails for several years. She never hardly ever complains, and always has her heart out to share. I am truly blessed to know her and consider her amongst my friends. May all the blessings of the Goddess continue to be with you and your family Rose.
