It’s 2.04 am, I can’t sleep. I’m at the computer and just clicked on a link to a story about one woman’s aim in life, following her diagnosis of breast cancer. (There are a lot of these stories going around at the moment in the lead up to Mother’s Day).
Hoping (maybe wrongly expecting) to be inspired – I got three paragraphs in, to read ‘unfortunately the cancer returned, this time to *name withheld*’s liver, brain and lungs, and in December last year she lost her three year battle’….
Unfortunately?! Who wrote this?!
Unfortunate doesn’t even begin to describe this situation.
I haven’t finished reading the article. I shut down the page with tears in my eyes and a heavy, heavy heart.
