The Elephant in the Room is Cancer. Tea is the Relief Conversation Provides.
I feel guilty
Waking up with all of my natural limbs.
Getting ready unassisted
Complaining about a bad day at work.
Paying exorbitant medical bills
I feel guilty
Yelling at my caring sister
Seeing my family pictures ruined with my bald head
Watching my brother evaluate his faith
Hearing my mom demand nurses take health symptoms about her children more seriously
I feel guilty
Talking to my best friend who lost her brother
Celebrating milestones with her bereft parents
Combing my hair
Surviving, and not thriving some days
I feel guilty.
I had the good cancer
My transplant worked
My family is supportive
I have amazing doctors
I feel guilty because I am alive
