You say you understand what I'm going through
but how could you for you have not walked in my shoes.
You say if I'm in remission why ain't I back to my old self.
Well just because the cancer is gone it don't mean I'm in perfect health. Not only do I have to recover physically. I also got recover mentally. So yes I thank God I'm cancer free but that don't mean sometimes I won't break down emotionally. The old me you want is gone and I must start anew. So give me support without judgment for you have not walked in my shoes.
