Dear friends, Kim and I would like to share some unfortunate news with you. Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring op\ons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do?

Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Robert Brinkmann, PE Chief Executive Officer 16650 Chesterfield Grove Rd., Suite 100 Chesterfield, Missouri 63005 p. 636.537.9700 f. 636.537.9880 Page 1 of 2

I know she’s getting terrific care from excellent docs but if for any reason you and she feel a second opinion from MD Anderson is warranted we can make that happen in a hurry if it would help. Or if there is anything else we can do please say the word.

Love you both, Brother.

You are so fortunate to have unearthed this threat which otherwise might have gone unnoticed. Kim is strong, positive and resilient. I trust God to take good care of her, even though it will take some skill from His very able and talented doctors and nurses, as well as patience and determination from the two of you.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step.

Dear friends, Kim and I would like to share some unfortunate news with you. Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring op\ons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

Please take care and keep us informed.

35 years ago our daughter Marie (one of our twins) was diagnosed by a very prominent cancer specialist in St. Louis.as having a rare form of bone cancer. (Ewing's Sarcoma) Not a promising prognosis.

That same night I took her and Charlotte to The Mayo Clinic in Rochester.

We spent a full week there and had a lot of tests performed.

At the end of that very stressful week we were informed that Marie didn't have any type of cancer.

The moral of this story.................ALWAYS get a 2nd opinion.

Dear friends, Kim and I would like to share some unfortunate news with you. Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring opXons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do?

Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Robert Brinkmann, PE Chief Executive Officer 16650 Chesterfield Grove Rd., Suite 100 Page 1 of 2

As you know, Kim, I have had my own cancer journey over the past few years. So I have some familiarity with how you may be feeling. It’s a scary and sometimes lonely journey. But please know that I am here for you…...to cry with you, to pray with you, to be with you at chemo…..to help you WHENEVER and in WHATEVER way you need. Just say the word, and I’ll be there.

I know that God is watching over you both so there is much reason for optimism and hope. But it is also time for you, who have done so much for others, let others now be there for you.

With my deepest love and affection…..always.

There’s a wonderful article I can send you… From the Christian Science journal. It uses this idea and the woman who wrote it - had a very rapid healing of cancer. I’ll work to find it and send it to you.

We are so saddened to hear this! I truly believe in how powerful prayer, positivity, and faith are and I know how strong Kim is. I will not only pray for her now, but daily! May God keep her wrapped in his loving arms for this tough journey and protect and heal her completely. Thinking of you both because watching a loved one battle is not easy.

And here’s another prayer that has brought great comfort: PSALM 91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pesWlence.

He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pesWlence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destrucWon that wasteth at noonday.

A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitaWon; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

With long life will I saWsfy him, and shew him my salvaWon. (Psalms 91:0–16 )

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do?

Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Robert Brinkmann, PE Chief Executive Officer 16650 Chesterfield Grove Rd., Suite 100 Chesterfield, Missouri 63005 Page 1 of 2

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do?

Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Robert Brinkmann, PE Chief Executive Officer 16650 Chesterfield Grove Rd., Suite 100 Chesterfield, Missouri 63005 p. 636.537.9700 f. 636.537.9880 c. 314.406.9700

You may or may not be aware of my experience of doing ayahuasca and then becoming a shaman. If not, thought this might be a good time to do so I will not go into details right now as it would be a very long e mail but please look up a place called Rythmia in Costa Rica. I have been there twice now.

Ayahuasca is simply a plant medicine that has been used for 5000 plus years by indigenous people of many South American countries to cure and help people in a myriad of ways. It allows our conscious part of the brain, only 10%, to communicate with the subconscious part which is 90%.

Once that happens boundless possibilities exist that otherwise did not.

Doing ayahuasca does not mean you forgo other traditional treatments. Many people go before they start treatment only to go back home and find out that their illness is gone. Others go back and find out that things have gotten better but some treatment is still necessary.

I went there hoping to connect with my bother and it was the most incredible experience I can ever imagine and yes I did connect with him in a very powerful way.

I do not bring this up to many but this process is all done with shamans and all shamans do is pray for people and connect the physical world to the spiritual world and that works for me.

Happy to talk with Kim if she is at all curious.

All my love and prayers.

It has to be terribly frightening for both of you.

You will both be in our daily prayers. I am a firm believer in the power of prayer and positive thoughts that your friends put out in the cosmos. You can count on us for this.

We know that you don’t want a lot of calls, so we will respect your privacy. Please know that we love you both, and would love to talk or get together when you would like.

God bless you both.

Dear Bob & Kim, This is to acknowledge receipt of your news and to thank you for sharing and also to thank you for including us in your group of many close friends who know you and really do love you, unconditionally. This was not the news that Cherri and I wanted to hear from you, but now that we are in the loop we are on a mission to be Prayer Warriors for Kim as she begins her ordeal to overcome this malady with God's help and his healing hands. We have entered into stage one this AM and will continue again tonight at 9:00 PM and then every day & night thereafter until you are proclaimed Cancer Free so we can all praise God and Celebrate his grace!

Kim, you have been on my mind over the last couple of weeks. I had been rationing the peach jam you gave us at our last LD2021 reunion, and finally scraped the last morsel from the bottom of that small jar. I removed the label from the lid and set it aside to be a reminder to send you a thank you note for sharing your delicious labor of love. So now I have a very good reason to end my procrastination and tell you how much I appreciated you and your handicraft on mornings when I enjoyed Kim's Peach Jam spread sparingly on a toasted English Muffin with melted butter and savored it along with my morning coffee! So.... thanks for those special memories of our last visit. As Bob has always said: "You are the Best!"

So..... Brother Bob we are also keeping you in our prayers that God will help you stay strong and be the rock that Kim can lean on, on those days when the side effects of the Chemo regimen make her question "why am I doing this?" That's when you have to let your "deboner" charm and optimism kick in and remind her "why she's doing this! Never let her give up faith that "God is Good" and he and you are with her every step of the way.

You see, I've been there before you and I know everything that's going thru your mind right now and will be going thru it in the days to come. Do everything you can and leave no cause for regrets for "coulda, woulda, shoulda decisions".

We believe and have personal evidence of the Power of Prayer so we will actively recruit other Prayer Warriors to petition God's help and attention for Kim's best welfare. It's in his hands and he knows what to do and how to do it! Remember, we want to be there for you if there is any way (and do I mean any way or anything) we can do to support you both on your journey.

Bob and Kim, Thank You so much for the note! We're very sorry for the news. Please know that you both will be in our constant thoughts and prayers, and that we send our love and support your way.

A few weeks ago I saw a picture of you two in Washington DC with Governor Parson and Senator Blunt and it made my heart happy.

All truly wonderful people and great leaders. And Kim looked amazing!

Last night I was listening to the Grand Ole Opry from Nashville, TN.. Michael Martin Murphey was playing the Opry stage last night and finished his segment with "Wildfire". My thoughts immediately went to the wonderful evening he played at Bryan Mill and the many good times Valerie and I have had because of your kindness and gracious hospitality. Charrette Farms, Bryan Mill, and Femme Osage Grove all hold special memories of great people and friends, food and music----thanks to you two!

We'll keep you in our prayers for strength, wisdom, and healing during this difficult time.

We love you both!

It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring opZons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do?

Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Robert Brinkmann, PE Chief Executive Officer 16650 Chesterfield Grove Rd., Suite 100 Chesterfield, Missouri 63005 p. 636.537.9700 f. 636.537.9880 c. 314.406.9700

We will be saying prayers for you!

One thing that I do believe is that as hard as it can and will be is that the mental side of this challenge will be as important as the physical side.

If there is anyone that I know that always seems to be looking at the glass 1/2 full (or really the glass IS full) side of things, it’s you Kim. We will all be here for you guys!

Not sure if I ever shared with you but when I was 20 I was diagnosed with Hodgkins Disease. In 1980 Hodgkins was pre(y much deadly. My parents were told I had less then a 30% chance of beaYng it. But with an incredible army of family and friends and two years of hell between RadiaYon and then Chemotherapy we beat it. I look back on that Yme in my life and I learned so much. The great value of family and friends who would not let me feel sorry for myself and who pushed me and encouraged me thru the whole process.

During my 28 years at the RMH I have been amazed at the incredible progress and success that has taken place with the treatment and ability of Dr’s and medicine to treat and even cure cancer. It is unbelievable. 2 years ago my older sister was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer that had metesYzed throughout her body.

The Dr said the normal life span of this is about a year. On May 15 she will celebrate 2 years of having a very normal and great life despite taking chemo every month. The advancements have been unbelievable.

If you ever want to chat and share/swap stories or commiserate as you go thru this don’t ever hesitate to call. As I have been there, done that. Rely on your incredible base of friends and family to help carry you thru this.

I am sure you will find this hard to believe but I am a EucharisYc Minister and go to church 4-5 days a week. I keep a prayer chain that I acknowledge every day. I am a huge believer in prayer and will add you to my list.

If I can do anything for you please do not hesitate to call. I have been the most blessed person in the world to have the opportunity to get to know and have friends like you.

The best to you…….and GO DO IT!! YOU CAN BEAT THIS!

Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring opeons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do? Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do

I don’t have Kim’s contact information and appreciate that she has so much on her mind. We had such a wonderful time together recently, I continue to feel as if I’ve know you Kim, for a long time! Please know that I’m on standby to be of assistance to and for you at any time.

We both want to lock arms with you two in this journey. I am optimistic and am reminded of Kims phenomenal power of intention.

Cindy and I are including Kim and you in our nightly Rosary that we pray together. I will also make certain that Kim and you are included in a Thursday night Rosary that I say each Thursday night with a group of men from our church. We met each Thursday at 9 pm to say the Rosary and include intentions from anyone who wishes to place one and the entire group prays a Rosary for those individuals and ask for our Lords light be shined on those individuals. We also say a Divine Mercy Chaplet to God our Father and Kim and you will be included each time we say that Chaplet.

Cindy and I do love both Kim and and you and you will be in our prayers and we will trust that God will guide Kim through this, and be at your side the entire time. May God bless you both, and if there is anything I or Cindy can do for either of you, even if you just need a person to talk to we are here to listen and pray.

Dear friends, Kim and I would like to share some unfortunate news with you. Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring op]ons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do? Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim.

Good morning Bob. First and foremost, I was heartbroken when Kim shared the news with me last week. Please know I’ve been praying daily and saying the rosary since I spoke with her. In addiUon to prayers, I want to offer any support that I possibly can. As someone who was diagnosed two years ago, I’ve been through mulUple surgeries along with chemo and radiaUon. I’m hopeful she will lean on myself and others. Knowing Kim and the amazing person she is, she may not want to ask for help but rest assured we are all hear to help her and you as well.

God Bless.

Dear Bob and Kim, My prayers for Kim's recovery from the cancer have already begun. It is fortunate that it was caught early. The esophageal cancer I had 5 years ago was caught early and that, along with good treatment at the Siteman Center, is why I am still here today.

Both of you will remain in my prayers always.

I’m sorry to hear this. You might want to seriously consider MD Anderson as a place to go. My girlfriend Karen was diagnosed with metastaUc breast cancer in 2016 and went there to get all of the examinaUons and a treatment plan. They were able to do biopsies on the micro level that Siteman or anybody in STL wasn’t able to do. MD Anderson was able to establish the treatment plan based on examinaUons and then she was able to have treatments done at Siteman Cancer center.

The treatments are definitely working for Karen and it has been in remission for some Ume now.

Karen is willing to talk to you and share her experiences if you are interested. Her number is 314.303.6231.

My prayers go out to both of you.

Thank you for sharing such personal and challenging news. It is a difficult road; but medically speaking, I am optimistic that this was caught early (if indeed it does turn out to be ovarian cancer—vs another cancer).

Absolutely, prayers have been said—and will continue. I believe deeply in the power of attention and intention.

And health crises sharpen the focus on relationships and finding greater meaning in our lives.

Your relationship is a beauty, and it warms the heart that you have each other. Learning to lean on a partner and sharing the weight of life’s burdens is one of the real gifts of meaningful love, and clearly you both have been blessed. It is a great comfort to know that one is truly not alone; and of course this circle of love and support includes all of our friends and loved ones.

We hope this journey rewards you both with comfort and reassurance about love and compassion, and the infinite capacity within us all to feel the connectedness with each other. Please know that we are with you, and offer any kind of support or assistance.

Kim, you are forever strong and courageous. Your vivacious spirit shines brightly. XOXO With love and hope, Chi Kim & Tim Rearden PS: One of my favorite photos from our wedding. A couple who truly enjoy each other.

Bob & Kim, Shannon shared your letter with me (hope that is ok).

Just want you both to know my heart is heavy for you. You have been on my mind all day.

This scripture continued to be impressed upon me….so thought I would share it.

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 41:10 We feel so blessed to have you in our lives. Only a few people you meet in life do you feel a connection to immediately - you were those people.

Kim, I will be praying daily during your treatments & if we can do anything you know we will be there.

You can do this.

Hugs to you both.

Good Morning, Bob. I’m sure you received a ton of responses to this email, and saw just how far and wide the support for you and Kim spreads.

I said my prayers (although I missed the 9:00 one by 15 minutes) and will conZnue to keep both of you in my thoughts. Having been in your shoes with my ex-wife when she ba(led breast cancer, it’s important you take care of yourself while caring for Kim. She’s going to need you, and you need to keep your health and spirits high.

If there’s anything you need in this journey, obviously don’t hesitate to ask.

Caught early, our medical community is doing what can be considered miracles. Positive attitude and good doctors work miracles. Prayer helps as well. I know when I had prostate surgery in 2008 my pastor said he would ask the congregation to pray for me. I told my pastor not to have the congregation pray for me, pray for the surgeon. Having survived cancer twice it is scary and the thought never totally goes away. Kim is in Cheryl and my prayers.

Dear friends, Kim and I would like to share some unfortunate news with you. Over the past week Kim has been diagnosed with cancer. It was caught early, in that it showed up in some CT scans taken for a different part of the body. The type of cancer is most likely related to Ovarian cancer. We are exploring opNons at this point and hope to get started with treatment very soon.

We decided to send this out to our close friends in this manner for a couple reasons.

First, we need your prayers. We have been blessed by many friends who we love and believe they love us. I am thinking, if you could say a prayer when you receive this it will start helping immediately. Then if you say another one tonight at 9 o’clock, that will really get it.

Second, we wanted to tell everyone ourselves and not have you hear about this through the grapevine. We are handling this head on. It will be a long road and we’re taking the first step. We are going to be taking a few days off this coming week, prior to the start of chemotherapy. What else can you do? Tell the one next to you that you love them, as I do Kim. Page 1 of 2

🙏🙏🙏 You are definitely in our prayers. I recently dealt with the Big C and am happy to report the medical support these days is incredible.

Scott’s mother in law has been dealing with stage 4 ovarian cancer, chemo, and surgery, and is coming through with flying colors. If you are interested and would like to talk to her I’ll be happy to put you in touch.

It was heartbreaking to read but sounds like you guys caught it early. Our hearts ache for you both and we will be keeping you both in our hearts, thoughts and prayers.

Unfortunately we gained a lot of experience not only on the medical side but in the emotional strain as well. If we could ever be of any help or just someone to talk to please let us know.

Subject: You are in our prayers Date: Wednesday, May 4, 2022 at 4:56:51 PM Central Daylight Time From: Rick Hill To: Bob Brinkmann, Kim Brinkmann ADachments: image001.png Hello Bob and Kim. I have just learned from Jamie Vann of Kim’s recent diagnosis with cancer. First, I want to assure you of our prayers. We went through this fiSeen years ago with Maria, and it was prayer that raised us up and got us through it, and ulTmately leS Maria cancer-free; Praise God! I would come home exhausted aSer dealing with doctors all day, and find an inbox full of emails from people who were praying for us. It helped us keep things in perspecTve and really carried us when we were too weak to walk on our own .

As such, be assured of our prayers! We will be storming heaven with you! I have contacted our children (we have seven) and asked them to pray for you. They remember well going through this with their Mom. Maria’s was in the uterine lining. It had nearly penetrated through the lining, but thanks be to God, it had not! I have also sent a request for prayers through our prayer chain to all of the “prayer warriors” I know.

Lastly, when we heard Maria’s diagnosis fiSeen years ago, my brother called me immediately and told me he and his wife were going to take care of everything for us so that we could just focus on Maria and making sure she was geang the best care possible. My brother ran my office, cut our lawn, did whatever needed to be done. His wife made dinners, and took care of our children. It was truly a blessing to know everything was in good hands, and didn’t need my acenTon. I am offering you the same here. I don’t know what you need, but if you need Maria and I to set up a meal chain to get meals prepared and delivered to you for the next couple of weeks, cut your grass, you name it, please let us know. God sent us many beauTful people to pray and walk with us through our Tme of need, and we will gladly do the same with you.

Please let me know of anything we can do to help you at this Tme. Know that, YOU ARE IN OUR PRAYERS!

Lord, I lift Kim and her affliction up to You, and ask that You take it away. I thank You, our Great Physician, for Your grace and mercy toward her. I ask You Lord that You would lead Kim & Bob in the right direction concerning her health. Put her in the hands of doctors whom You choose. Work through those doctors’ minds and hands so that they do what is best for her dear Lord. We trust that You are using Kim as a part of Your perfect plan.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path. (Proverbs 3:5-6) Please fill her heart with Your Holy Spirit. Encourage Kim to lay everything on Your shoulders. Nudge her to ask You for everything as You are everything. Show her how happy You are to see that she relies on You for every single thing in her life. Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall. (Psalm 55:22) Please take away Kim’s anxiousness, fear, and worrying. I ask that You replace it with Your peace, love, and encouragement. We know God that You are our Healer. Please strengthen and heal Kim. Your Word says and promises: He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sickness (Matthew 8:17). You suffered, died, and were buried for Kim so that she might have healing, forgiveness, and eternal life. By Your stripes we are healed (1Peter 2:24).

In Your presence we can reach out to You and in turn be touched by You. We love You sweet Lord and thank You for Kim. Her love and friendship have been a blessing to me and my family. I thank You Lord for that precious gift. You have Blessed Kim with a beautiful life, with an extraordinary mind, and a selfless heart. For my soul trusts in You; and in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge, until these calamities pass by. (Psalm 57:1) In Jesus’ name, Your servant, ~Lisa

The Capps family are very, very, very big believers in the remarkable power of prayer and positive thinking and we are praying for you this morning and will do so every day until you beat this scourge. Kim, you are so vibrant and healthy and have such a wonderfully positive outlook that I am so confident that you will win this battle and live a long and healthy life with Bob. You have the best husband and spouse and boy does that make a huge difference. Keep a great attitude and lean on your many friends. We are thinking about you and sending you the most positive vibes. By the way, you will have over 70 Capps family members praying for you without knowing for whom the are praying. I just mentioned a dear friend was sick and I needed them to mobilize their families to pray for you. They are more prayerful than even myself. God Bless you and keep you well. You will beat this!!

I really appreciate you guys telling us, as of course we want to pray for you and be here for you during your treatment and recovery. I am so incredibly sorry this is happening and you are going through this. Remember that you take such good care of yourself and you are healthier than 99.9% of people and if anyone can get through this, it's you. I want to tell you, that I hope you know I am willing any and every day to come over and help you out with whatever you need. I'm not sure how you are feeling now or how you will feel during treatment, but I will gladly come over and cook or prepare anything you would like to eat or drink. I know you like to eat clean & healthy and I am good at/used to preparing juices, smoothies, and the types of meals you often eat & enjoy. Just know I am here and available and I would do anything for you!

Of course there are so many things I want to ask you (like how are you feeling right now, what did they say treatment would be like/how you will feel), but I don't want to overwhelm you and I want to respect your privacy. Know I am thinking of you so much, that I will be praying for you every day, and that I'm here.
