It's amazing and rare I think, when you find a person out there who shares a similar story to yours and when you have the opportunity to actually know this person and learn from their experiences and to find strength in their strength ....well, it's quite an extraordinary gift that I'm quite thankful for.
She...who shall remain nameless for now...sent me the link to the song above. The lyrics struck a chord in me...as it did her. Not only does the song mean something to me, but it means a lot to have another human being know EXACTLY how you feel without asking too many questions. I have cancer, and yes...my friends and family have for the most part, been terrific but there is only so much that they can understand and only so much comfort they can give. I am sad that she had to experience what I'm experiencing now, but so very grateful that she overcame it all and decided to reach out to a stranger and offer words of comfort and experience and offer time and comfort to me when I needed it the most.
So, in the midst of my sleepless nights, pain, and other wonderful chemo things...I say thank you. <3
