I'm Tired

I used to think my life was somewhat boring; I’d love to have a boring old day now. I was fine with just seeing my doctor once a year…I’m tired of doctor’s appointments. I’m tired of being bald. I’m tired of not being able to work. I’m tired of reading books on cancer. I’m tired of searching for websites on cancer. I’m tired of wearing baseball hats. I’m tired of the port. I’m tired of the chemo. I’m tired of being tired. I'm tired of cancer.

Therapy session over.

Hi Kim:

I think you need to get yourself one of those "politically incorrect" cancer T-shirts, one that says "Cancer f@#%ing sucks!!!)Although, how you would explain that to Andrew and Sean, I don't know. I can only imagine the struggle you must go through every day and how sick you must be of the whole thing. Maybe you don't know this but, for us in the "Coffee-blogger group", it is your strength and inspiration that keeps us going sometimes. If I am ever stressed out about something, I think about how calmly and effectively you handle this hurdle in your life and it helps me to get over my little bump. That being said, I think it is extremely cathartic to vent, vent, vent and I am happy to read about that too, just wish there was something I could do to make it better.

Can't wait to see you guys at the wedding and looking forward to a nice week-end in Blue Mountain.

Andrea

Kim,

No falling asleep while driving the bus!

I know that you're tired of all the crap that goes along with cancer, we all are tired with you in some way or another. Whenever I'm in an uncomfortable place, I always think to myself, tomorrow this will be over, or next year this will be a distant memory. (this comes in uselful for being in the hospital, dentists, and roller coasters).

Remember how much we love you, and maybe a wee bit of that tiredness will be past you.

Love,

Chris

Dearest Kim:
I can't imagine how you must feel, and the struggle you make everyday because you had such a fully packed busy life always doing something or going somewhere and now it has slowed to a pace you are not used of. But all any of us can do is one day at a time, and hope tomorrow will be better. I wish there was something Dad or I could do to take it all away because we both feel so helpless and we love you so much. But we know you will conquer this journey and get back your "fantastic life back", with your two beautiful sons and wonderful Steve.
Love always sweetheart,
Mom
