perspective

yeah, cancer pretty much blows.  It devastatingly affects so many people.  There are so many stories of raw devastation and humbling courage and incredible loss.   This cartoon by xkcd kind of hit me hard and provides incredible perspective on what people fighting the fight face.

got someone out there to love but your life is always go go go? Maybe stop whatever plans you had this weekend (unless it was incredibly romantic and involved them already) and just go love, appreciate and cherish them with ever fibre of your body.  Cancer doesn't play favourites and no one is immune no matter their status, their job, their finances.

 

I am filled with gratitude and love for the amazing examples of courage I see in people like Jack, Margie, Maddie, in their families and friends no matter how private or public their battle is.
