Yes definitely! That would be awesome. Thanks I found out today that my sister has breast cancer. She's getting a mastectomy next week. We don't know how far along it is until after the operation. It's horrible. I have been in a state of shock all day. She's only 33 and is the most caring, generous person I've ever known. Sorry to be a downer but I guess I just had to put it in writing . . . or something. Things like this are what make me even more of an atheist.

Sorry for your sister, I don't believe in God so I can't pray for her, but I hope from the bottom of my heart she will be cured. Perhaps some french song's titles will give you "du baume au coeur" (it means give you balsam upon your heart : a little consolation) there are some old cult song in France : [glow=red,2,300]Les feuilles mortes[/glow], Yves Montand : http://www.capurromrc.it/acetato/le%20feuilles%20mortes-y.montand-acetato.MP3[glow=red,2,300]Le temps des cerises[/glow], Yves Montandhttp://ohmychanson.com.ne.kr/asf/Yves%20Montand%20-%20Le%20temps%20des%20cerises.asf[glow=red,2,300]Mon amant de Saint Jean[/glow], Lucienne Delyle,, Edith piaf sang it too h ttp://www.majamee.net/chez_gegene/Mon%20Amant%20de%20Saint-Jean.wma[glow=red,2,300]Il n'y a pas d'amour heureux[/glow] [glow=red,2,300]Avec le temps[/glow], Léo Ferréhttp://ohmychanson.com.ne.kr/ra/AvecLeTemps.ram[glow=red,2,300]Le port d'Amtersdam,[/glow] Jacques Brelhttp://citrs.villanova.edu:8080/ramgen/swhidden/Jacques_Brel/Quinze_Ans_Damour/20_Amsterdam.rm[glow=red,2,300]Ne me quitte pas[/glow], Jacques Brelhttp://citrs.villanova.edu:8080/ramgen/swhidden/Jacques_Brel/Quinze_Ans_Damour/04_Ne_Me_Quitte_Pas.rm[glow=red,2,300]Quand on a que l'amour[/glow], Jacques Brel http://ohmychanson.com.ne.kr/asf/Jacques%20Brel%20-%20Quand%20on%20n'a%20que%20l'amour.asf[glow=red,2,300]Ma plus belle histoire d'amour c'est vous[/glow], Barbarahttp://www.francevision.com/CATALOG_MUSIC/Barbara_maplusbelle.rm just an extract [glow=red,2,300]L'aigle noir[/glow], Barbarahttp://perso.wanadoo.fr/heliopolisbis/aigle_noir.wma[glow=red,2,300]Mistral gagnant[/glow], Renaudhttp://www.folkblues.net/Renaud%20-%20Mistral%20Gagnant.mp3[glow=red,2,300]Le métèque,[/glow] Georges Moustakihttp://www.ans.edu.ni/Academics/Noguera,Violeta/french/LeMeteque.wma[glow=red,2,300]La bohème,[/glow] Charles Aznavourhttp://bh.kyungpook.ac.kr/~kstek/music/Aznavour/Aznavour_La_boheme.mp3[glow=red,2,300]Emmenez-moi,[/glow] Charles Aznavourhttp://www.gifs.com.br/waves/charles_aznavour_emmenez_moi.wav[glow=red,2,300]Et maintenant,[/glow] gilbert Bécaud http://perso.wanadoo.fr/heliopolisbis/et_maintenant_que_vais_je_faire.wma

Dearest Catherine, Aw poor baby. My thoughts are with you and your family. Also, please don't feel like you need to apologize for sharing your bad news with us. We all support you and your family 100% in our own ways. I hope the operation is successful and you hear something good soon. Keep your chin up girl.

Thanks everyone She's actually in high spirits about everything. She's the kind of person to look at the bright side of everything so her being cheerful as usual kind of makes everyone else feel better. Here I am moping about and she's out shooting photos. lol Thanks so much Aurelie ;D I'll save them so I can listen to them later.

I know everyone said something Catherine but I had to say that I'm sorry to hear about your sister. I think that's great that she's not letting it get her down. She'll be in my prayers. I hope it all turns out good for you, her and your family.
