have you ever...

Have you ever felt so shattered inside that you sit in silence in complete and utter shock?

Have you ever cried so hard that you can't catch a breath and you feel so empty inside?

Have you ever rolled yourself into a ball because you feel so alone and scared?

Have you ever been so touched by a person whom you've never met that it brings warmth to your heart?

Have you ever been loved so unconditionally by someone that they hug and kiss you even though you look like you have just come back from hell?

Have you ever taken a close look at your aging parents and see the wrinkles on their faces as they keep an worrisome watch over you?

Have you ever taken the time to appreciate each and every part of your body and marvel at the beauty of it all?

Have you ever had to consider the possibility of leaving this beautiful world and those that you love?...

Cancer has allowed me the opportunity to experience all of the above and so much more.

Screw you cancer.

Thank you cancer.
