Another angel has joined Heaven's choir....

I received word yesterday morning that another one of our Bold and Beautiful women have gone to heaven... Monica T. entered her new life in heaven on Thursday after a 4 year long battle with breast cancer. I spoke with a friend who had been caring for her for the past month and she reported that Monica had a rapid decline shortly after her amazing photo session, that her abilities to care for herself were compromised and she needed full time care. She remained pain free until the 24 hours before her death, entered the hospital for pain control and died peacefully and not in any discomfort. I am happy to report that either due to the contacts from her blog entry or family and friends, she was able to find loving and caring homes for all of her dogs... and it's reported that she found great comfort knowing that they would be loved and cared for as she would have. Heaven has a new angel in it's choir. Monica expressed to me her great faith in her Saviour, Jesus and has gone home to be with Him.
Note: Her friend Connie wanted me also to correct some information from her blog entry of a month ago... Monica didn't ride in the Ididarod race, she volunteered helping one year. It was my misunderstanding and my mistake. Monica didn't want to mislead anyone into thinking that she had actually ridden in the race. She was indeed a dog-sled musher and had several beautiful Siberian huskies. I stand corrected.
I say again... life is brief and time is a thief. Enjoy life my dear friends...you never know when it will be taken from you.

My heart and prayers go out Monica 's friends and family. It is so tough to hear about the loss of yet another wonderful woman due to this evil disease... especially as you have it at 36. Why? I have so many questions about cancer.. How and why are we getting this? The last statistic I heard was that now 1 in 3 women are diagnosed with breast cancer. This is tough to hear about Monica. Monica you are an angel!
Terri, you inspire me! I believe God chose the perfect lady to act on His vision of "Be Bold and Feel Beautiful!" When you first told me about what God had laid on your heart, honestly, I was skeptical. However, because of your obedience, God has been able to touch many woman and families. You have been a great example to us all of what being bold in spirit looks like and the sweetest illustration of helping so many others to feel beautiful. I am in love with you Terri! You inspire me!!!
