For the first time in my life, I’m struck with how “not okay” cancer can be. Not okay cancer is cloaked in a dark robe of inoperability. Inoperable and metastatic. Inoperable, metastatic, and stage IV. Inoperable, metastatic, and stage IV at 32 with a bleak prognosis.
Please pray for my friend as he starts chemo next week. Two days ago he was blissfully ignorant of the journey in which he’s about to embark. I hope the reason I’ve had my path is to be a source of strength and honesty in times like these.
Cancer does not play fair and seems to prey on the brightest lights of all.
