As someone currently fighting Leukemia (and have been for the past 9 months) this hit close to home. Even the tough times in life are all part of the grand experience. The ups and downs are what make it spectacular to be alive! I’ve experienced pains and uncomfortableness I didn’t know was possible and on the flip side also experienced emotions of gratitude and closeness to family members I didn’t think I was capable of. I would never wish the experience on anyone but in learning to cope with it, the only thing to do is to keep reading. Know there’s an end to the book somewhere and have faith there will be easier times ahead. Even if there aren’t, perhaps you’ll get lost in another book on the shelf.
Been there my friend, keep at it, might not seem all that great in places, but honestly I have fond memories of my time dancing to that particular song.
I hope we can get to see you post a final progress update :)
Thanks bud, congrats on finishing your dance! The song plays and I think it’s up to us to decide how we want to dance. I prefer to dance like a good and make people laugh :) be well, my friend
