It makes it easier for those of us who face our own battles – or our closest family members battling with cancer (or any disease). You’ve given permission from the transparency of your heart – to beat down the restraining door within; to release the pressure valve of words- some of them expletives, boiling over ready to escape. I’m reminded of a particular hospital scene when things started to go south for my son and my first response caught my pastor off guard. At the time, he told me I had a bad attitude. Years later, he’s horrified by his religious response. We’re still close friends and he chuckles over how many more times he’s hears s— since then. The point being, I took that as my cue to hold my thoughts (my real ones) inside. Your piece breaks off the inner chains of religious politeness some of us have been shackled to – unknowingly- and gives space to breathe and say whatever truth must come forth. God can handle it.
