MY DEAR FRIEND JANET

Janet Forsgren and I have been good friends for over 30 years. When we first moved to Grand Junction, Janet was Primary President and I was put into Primary right away. Janet and I had daughters that were close in age. They grew up together in the Gospel.

Janet and I were pool buddies. We enjoyed the exercises and classes at St. Mary's Life Center pool every day. It was always fun to have Janet in my classes and we could catch up on all the news.

One day at Church, Janet and I got a kick out of dressing the same. We had no idea that we had bought the same skirt and top at Christopher and Banks. I had my camera with me so Don took these pictures because we thought it was so funny. We decided that we also had the same taste in clothes too.

I was so sad when I learned a month ago that Janet had Colon Cancer. She called me and asked me if I thought this was catching. I told her that I'm sure it wasn't. She had surgery in Sept. and found out that the cancer cells were in the nymph nodes so that meant that she would have 12 treatments in the next 6 months.

I felt so bad that she had to go through this too. Today was her second chemotherapy treatment so I went to see how she was doing. She looked great and she knows that I'm there for her all the way!!
