Cancer Sucks


No, this post is not a fun one. Not an uplifting one. One that shows the raw emotion of where I am at. I a not even going to pretend that I can speak for our whole family on this one. Its all me. Unadulterated, unedited me.

 

Two nights ago we were blessed with an amazing night nurse named Sili. She has a wonderful spirit and brings instant happiness to the room. I happened to look up and notice a pin on her lanyard. it read "cancer sucks" in Disney font. I mentioned how much I loved the pin. She began to tell me how it was made by a former patient's mother. The patient is no longer here. About an hour or so later in she walks with a button. An extra. One for me. I cried. She said she tried to dig up more but this was the last of the last. As the mother was no longer making them. I cried more. 

 

This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the stories I could share. So many so sick so disheartening. The truth of the matter is Cancer does suck. Is it part of our journey? Yes. Do I have to like it-- no I do not. Accept it yes. Like it no. 

 

As I sit with Sterling, Paul, Sarah, Jacob and my mom. I soak in the memories and make new ones. I will take what I can get for as long as I can get it. Is it painful? Yes. Do my Dad's posts make me cry like a baby? Yes. Is this our journey? Yes. Does it suck? Why yes, Cancer sucks.

 

Tomorrow our journey continues and maybe just maybe it will be easier.
