I just found out my dad (most likely) has cancer and has surgery in 2 wks. It's so hard b/c I lost my mom to cancer at age 19. <br />I could totally relate to what you've written so far...I'm still (12 yrs. later) dealing with the fact I wasn't "there" more. <br />It gives me some strength to be there for my dad in a way I couldn't be for my mom. <br />I've been wanting to write about it for a couple years now and to find someone who could relate - but I haven't found the strength to do it yet (or the words). You're a huge encouragement to me, thank you for your honesty.Kryshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387828440906107592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-68168711238884176702009-09-12T21:16:56.522-07:002009-09-12T21:16:56.522-07:00I love how you write about your mom, I love how mu...I love how you write about your mom, I love how much she wanted you to live your life without fear for her.anymommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17870033179328734404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-75908518024301589192009-09-12T19:40:17.235-07:002009-09-12T19:40:17.235-07:00Haven't 'seen' you around lately....an...Haven't 'seen' you around lately....and this is the post I land on.
