I have nothing to offer but encouragement that you continue to write as long as you can. I've lost two siblings to cancer, both waiting for the end without the words to express what they were going through. You've given them a voice and me an understanding that was missing in my own journey. I only wish I had read this while they were still here. Thank you, and I hope you find peace in your journey.

@56tburd I’m so sorry about your siblings. I can’t imagine the weight of losing them, especially feeling like words were missing. If anything I’ve written has given them a voice for you, or helped you understand your own journey a little more… then every hard day of writing has been worth it.

Thank you for telling me that. It means more than I can explain. I’m holding you and your siblings in my heart.

I’ll keep writing as long as I can. And I’m praying for peace for you, too — for the kind that comes from being understood, even after they’re gone.
