This is the month for telling folks that you love and appreciate them.
Those of you who love and take care of us cancer patients sometimes feel overwhelmed, concerned, angry, lost, or helpless. Much of the time you probably endure the helplessness silently and without complaint.
Please know that we understand this. We recognize and deeply appreciate the incredibly high price you pay for loving us. Every victory we have is yours as much as it is ours. (Like when we get a really good lab report or realize it has been TWO MONTHS since we've needed procrit and neupogen (wooo hoo!) )
It has been said that the greatest gift is to lay down one's life for another. We know that you often choose to sacrifice, to put your lives on hold, set your lives aside while we fight for ours.From the bottom of our hearts we love you for this!
