I have pondered this question in my head many a time but unfortunately it may be something I have to answer sooner rather than later... Are you ever ready for it? How do you tell your kids Daddy is getting sicker? I want to pull down the stars and the moon cause I feel like I'm in darkness. My heart aches for Him and yet my heart is beginning to feel numb. I want my protective instinct to kick in but survival instinct is taking over... just doing enough to get by. I feel like I'm in slow motion and the world is spinning around me.

I cannot stand it. It is like having an itch I cannot scratch I am going insane, I am convinced of it, well hanging between insanity and feeling dark. Although, some would question my sanity to begin with.... The next 24 hours are going to drive me insane SO...I have decided I will laugh or perhaps even chortle my way into surgery. Please post a joke or three, a funny story or anecdote because I think the straw is about to break on this lumpy camels back! Teach xoxoxox

So, without going in to great detail at this moment, I have just told my partner how much time I have left, and now I have to tell my family. So, how do I do this? I was hoping I'd have 4 weeks up my sleeve until my next doctors appointment, but my partner snooped around too much and found out that something was very wrong - so I had to tell him... Now I just have to tell my aunt when she gets home...tonight. The funny thing is that they all thought I was a drug addict and didn't have cancer at all. If only that was the case. I'm just not sure how to tell her the gruesome truth.
