About Me

You've got to be kidding me, I have Breast Cancer? My name is Madelene Boudreaux. I just had my 51st birthday and my present was cancer. Although it wasn't the present I was expecting, I have decided to embrace it as such. My life as it existed is changed. Even though my diagnosis is that I have the most common breast cancer you can have (80% of the women who get breast cancer have this one) and the actual tumor was only 1.2 centimeters and there was only a microscopic spec in one lymph node... things just changed overnight. I feel confident that I will be healed with all the surgery, chemo and radiation, as well as the prayers, the shift in lifestyle and health changes, all of this with God as my Healer overseeing the whole plan. Most importantly, sunsets are more beautiful, my children are more precious and I cry for everything. Such clarity prevails, where life was blurry. I know my healing will come gently through trusted medical professionals, faith in a loving God and prayerful friends. I am surrounded by love with my family of eight kids and a great husband and a community of kind spirits!

Blair's baby Shower!





What a joyous occasion! Today was Blair's baby shower at my friend Nina's lovely home, given by Blair's friends and family. What a great job they did! Everything was so cute, sooo Blair! The food was delicious too! Little Audrey Lane will be well set with beautiful, stylish clothes and a really cute nursery. Only a few weeks away until her arrival. She is due on February the 1st. Mimi better get rockin' on her drapes and bedding. Be sure and check out the "HEEL-ARIOUS" zebra print high heel shoes that Amy gave her!! Today was great, all good. I am so happy for Blair and Glen!

Isn't it just like God to give us the true "miracle" of life in the closing chapters of scripture: "There shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain" (Rev. 21:4). In our deepest desires, He promises we will overcome darkness, disease and death...Merry Christmas and may the spirit of Christ reign in our hearts through the coming year!!!
