I awake to another day and it looks like it will be the same as the previous, an entire day devoted to battling cancer. A day of pills, treatments, logging activities, bandaging wounds, one monotonous activity melding into the next. “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear … Continue reading Hope →
