Certainly I would be able to make this change.. write about trying to get healthy.. recipes.. losing weight.. not let my emotions enter my words and take over.. stop writing about what cancer does.. how it has effected me.. I thought I would be able to make this change.. but I cannot..
I find myself redefined by my journey.. and by the journeys of others that I meet because of my fight against cancer.. I could not find the word to use.. but a songbird named Laura came up with “Redefined”.. and I thought as soon as I read that word.. that is me..
Although all of the topics listed above will hopefully be intertwined in my stories.. I cannot turn away from the feelings that take over my ramblings and find their way to words.. Cancer effects so much more than a cell that refuses to behave.. it establishes an odds and ends family..it is a common sharing of secrets.. people tell you in a second if they are a survivor.. we blurt it out to complete strangers if we see them with a pink ribbon or a warrior scarf.. we are all redefined.. it is our choice in what way..
a : to reexamine or reevaluate especially with a view to change
