Mighty Mom is a keen observer of life. She shares her personal experiences and opinions in helpful and often amusing ways.

This hub is dedicated to Darlin' Karlin

When you're fighting cancer, every day is a milestone.

I have never had cancer, but I know way too many people who have, and  who do. I've seen beautiful, bald women battling breast cancer at the Komen Race for the Cure. My son's father survived a rare form of rectal cancer. My father-in-law died of lymphoma.  My beloved uncle died of lung cancer. The list goes on.

This being my 50th hub, I wanted to make it special.

This hub is for Karlin. My beautiful, strong, amazingly gracious friend who is fighting for her life. Karlin just finished her 11th grueling week of chemotherapy. She's getting ready to have surgery to remove what remains of the tumor in her breast. The good news is it's down from 4cm to .5cm. She is optimistic it can be a lumpectomy instead of more invasive surgery.

There are hundreds, if not thousands of people praying for Karlin. She is surrounded by love. As I said above, Karlin is strong.

Music is healing. It's a universal fact.

These songs are for her -- and for anyone who is facing tough challenges. Here's to Karlin. Here's to beating breast cancer. Here's to triumphing over life's obstacles.

#1 Karlin, you will always be beautiful

#2 You will be healed

#3 Sistah, I know you can make it!

#4 You've got the power

Thirteen songs

I'm hoping 13 will be a lucky number. Please feel free to add your own song suggestions, including links if you feel like it. Music is powerful. Let's drown that icky cancer out with good thoughts and beautiful notes!!!
