Reflective
Today is a reflective day as I ponder and remember my dear friend Marg. We both set out on this cancer journey, mine being breast and hers being lung. We kept each other company in the early hours ...
Hi Christine,
Your message is perfect as we reflect on the year behind us and the year ahead.
I too lost my best friend, bridesmaid and beautiful soul in September. She lost her battle with intestinal cancer at 51. The irony of it all was that I was sitting with her for chemotherapy each fortnight or so and then bang! I was also diagnosed but with BC.
It somehow made it tougher for me, as my prognosis was better than hers, she passed away on the week I couldn't get out of bed after chemo, I couldn't say goodbye.
Sometimes I felt guilty and it was difficult to talk about our different experiences because cancer is different for everyone.
But I'm glad you could share so much with someone and she obviously made a big impact in your life.
All the best and we will carry our friends in our hearts to the end of our days.
Hugs,Kym
