my sister, Victoria Ann (who would be 54 years old this Friday), please make sure you have your mammogram scheduled if you haven't already done so. I just had mine this morning. I was glad to answer the question presented by the nurse with a "Yes"... "Is this just a routine mammogram, Mrs. Baylis"? Praise God!
Also, please keep my mom in your prayers this week, as I'm sure she'll be thinking about her firstborn daughter.
I'm praying for all of you who have been touched by breast cancer in any way...
Much love,
Angie xoxo
***Updated note from my mom on Friday, Oct 24th...
"OH, ANNIE. THAT TRIBUTE TO VIC IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. ISN'T IT REMARKABLE THAT IT SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY THAT SHE WAS BORN. I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE SHE IS GONE. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU EVER HEARD THAT WHEN I CAME OUT OF THE DELIVERY ROOM WITH HER IN MY ARMS, DADDY SAID, "SHE LOOKS LIKE A LOBSTER" I WAS SO UPSET WITH HIM BECAUSE I THOUGHT SHE WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BABY THAT I HAD EVER SEEN. BUT SHE WAS KINDA RED......
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT HAS BEEN L0 YEARS...I MISS HER TODAY AS MUCH AS I DID WHEN SHE WENT TO BE WITH GOD. SOMETIMES I GET A LITTLE BIT JEALOUS WHEN I THINK THAT vIC AND YOUR DAD ARE TOGETHER AND
THAT HE SEES HER ALL THE TIME. SHE HAD SUCH A WONDERFUL DISPOSITION, SO LOUD, SO FUNNY AND SO MUCH OF OUR FAMILY. I WOULD JUST LOVE TO HEAR HER PLAYING THE PIANO AND SINGING. LIKE MEGAN SAID ON HER 6 YEAR OLD TRIP. " I NEED MY MOM, I JUST WANT TO SMELL HER. THATS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO TOO. I AM SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE ALL OF YOU, BUT TODAY AND TOMORROW I WILL STILL HAVE TO BE SAD FOR HER. I LOVE YOU ANNIE"

Sweet Ang, you tell your mom she is in my thoughts and prayers, I know her heart must ache, and you are right there in my prayers too.
By the way that is my very favorite movie, one of the only ones who can make me cry every time
love you
Thinking of all of you...and prayers going your way. I can only imagine how hard it is losing a child/ sister...anyone. God bless you all.

I will be thinking of you and your mom

I'm having my first next spring after my 35th birthday. It is in my family. My maternal gma is a survivor of 10+ years. My paternal aunt died of breast cancer, the kind that grows from the outside and is visible. I can't remember the name but it is fast growing. It looks like a skeeter bite on the breast but by that time, it's far into the later stages. She died 7 years ago.
Love,
Paula
How sad. I am sorry for your loss and I will head your warning. Thank you and God bless you Ang.
You and your mom are in my prayers as you remember your Victoria. I really hope you can go to that Selah concert on Thursday--and celebrate Victoria's life, especially. She would have loved to know you were still going to concerts and more importantly, walking so closely with Jesus. Love you, my sister. Annette
Of course, October 24th will be a day I will now always remember your sister and you too.
My mammo is scheduled for December along with all of those other 50 yr old tests I have to have this year.
I will be praying for your family this week Angie.
Bless you my friend, Cindy
Glad sisters are spreading the word.
I will be praying for you and your mother this week.
Love, Annette
