Why does every thought I have need to end in the word cancer? Why can’t I have one full day without that word? Why do I have to obsess about it? I wake up with it in my head and fall asleep with it there too. Some days it’s impossible to think I’m going to get through this. I know I wouldn’t be able to get through a single day feeling sane without the support of the people around me. How do people ever get through something like this alone?
