I have been spending so much time complaining and worrying about everything that is going on with my disease right now, I have missed the main point.
An angel today in the form of a young man reminded me how lucky I am. His wife has lung cancer and has to have radiation everyday and chemo 3 times a week. I told him how cool it was that he was with her everyday during her treatment. He told me he rearranged his schedule so he could be there and that he was there for me also if I needed to talk at all. Wow....A perfect stranger.
Now this is only one example of perfect strangers becoming my angels. Yesterday a women noticed I was freezing while I was standing at the elevator to go home from treatment. She said she just wanted to hold me, so she took me in her arms, held me tight to get me warm, rode in the elevator with me and walked me to the front door of the hospital all the way keeping me warm. Wow...A perfect stranger.
This has been the most amazing journey and I have learned so much about myself and the people around me. It's funny, I don't see the world the same, I don't walk the same path.
I would never wish this disease on anyone, but if anyone ever gets it, stay on the lookout for angels. They are there when you least expect it.......
