I started my blog as an internal Yammer, but at some point began posting it to six external blog sites and emailing it to ~1,000 friends, fellow cancer survivors and acquaintances. Almost every day I get emails from individuals that have connected with my words and share their stories. Yesterday, as I exercise walked Pandora played Eric Clapton's "Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door” and I had to stop for the tears were coming too fast. She’d written me before about her cancer journey, but todays email was trying to say goodbye. The words drove my tears, as I thought about her courage, her love of family, friends, and life. Today we honor her life with our tears.
