None of that 'you're strong' bs because he is but it doesn't matter and to say that - well it sounds so negative. Thinking of you just seems so weightless and ephemeral. <br /><br />It's so hard to put into words how we feel about cancer and I feel that most people opt on the side of not saying anything at all. And yet you keep going forward and saying the things you do, changing the things you saw, growing in your perception. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing. - PersimmonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
