Cancer Leash

Today is a cancer care day.  It will start in a few hours at the diagnostic center (blood / specimen collection) where many anxious individuals will be waiting.  Early in my cancer journey I heard a man talking about his 3 month “leash” on life, and I remember thinking, I’ll never live like that, but I did.  Each 3-month checkup was a nightmare of watching my cancer markers, and then one day when my cancer markers weren’t doing so well, but life was, I simply let go of the leash.  Instantly, I was re-energized by the courage of letting go, and felt its healing fullness in my soul.  Today, let go and be re-energized by life.
