Cancer Triangle

Now we are in-between and it is its own strange time. Making holiday plans, shopping, talking about gifts and trips and life—as if cancer is over. But is it over or only away on a trip of its own. They say that people who have cancer are never really over it. Once you know this can happen to you it’s always there hovering in the background. It’s true for caregivers too. It’s there in the background and compounded by my questions about the relationship. Will we ever have a relationship that is just us? Will there always be a triangle: me and him and cancer?
