Did Ya Know?
Did ya know that bone cancer weakens the bones so much that they can fracture, crumble even, at the slightest impact?
Did ya know that it's something like dry rot in wood?
Did ya know that the physical response from such a fracture causes excruciating pain - the kind where you can't breathe and almost lose consciousness?
Did ya know that even years after experiencing the wrath of this fucking cunt of a disease, it all comes back like it was yesterday - the ominous questions, the waiting, the wondering, the weight of it, the fear, the helplessness, the ache that you can't take her fear or pain away. Instead, you watch her weaken, watch her fade - physically, emotionally, spiritually.
Things I didn't know. Things I wish I didn't still.
