I don't know what my least favourite word is but I can tell you two of my most favourite. Two little words my mother said to me earlier this afternoon and which woke me what I only now realise has been a nightmare. She relayed these two little words from the mouth of an oncologist who doesn't get to say them often enough.
All. Clear.
Although it made me cry and still is making me cry, I hope anyone waiting for these two little words, either now or in the future, gets to hear them too. I feel very lucky today.
Not me. My mum. This is the first day in a while I can say that my mother doesn't have cancer any more. Some people, both on IIN and off it, have tried to monopolise and make me feel even worse. If that's the kind of thing that makes them feel good, I pity them. But I still hope they find some way to be happier than they are. And I hope others get to hear news as overwhelming (but ultimately positive) as I've just received. It's a dreadful illness and it's taken some important people in my life but we're starting to get the measure of it. :)
ah well it would of been bad either way, but watching it happen to someone you care about is the worst :( You shouldn't feel bad, its not something that's in your control. Most important thing with this kind of stuff is a positve attitude, sometimes mentality can make so much of a difference O__O
bleugh, this advice is coming a weee bit too late since you probably don't need it anymore ah vell
