The climb

I have been reflecting about Sue's great news yesterday and feel it's been a long time since we had something to celebrate when the words "scan results" come from the mouths of Sue's medical team. Well, as I'm reflecting upon Sue's positive results, a song from a young 16 yr old plays in my head as it does around our home these days. Powerful words from one of my daughter's favorite singers: Miley Cyrus.

The song is "The Climb" and can't help but think of Sue during this cancer journey. I have played the words in my head over and over today and would like to share the words with you.

Thank you Sue for showing a younger brother that prayer, belief, strength, hope, inspires me beyond words. I picture you dancing at my daughters weddings and holding their babies one day, eating garlic fries cheering the Giants and walking the finish line with me. These are my dreams and yesterday's news kept those dreams alive.
By the way, I speak for many many others when I say "you inspire me"
