You did everything you were supposed to do.
I asked if you were angry. You said, what can I do? All I can do is what they tell me now.
And you did.
Four rounds of chemo
Pills for nausea
30+ lung radiation treatments
10 brain radiation treatments
Numerous numerous numerous blood tests
3 blood transfusions
Shots for the low white blood count
Steroids for pneumonitis
Shots for blood clots
Jabs and jabs and jabs for more blood tests
Pills for everything in between
You did everything you were supposed to do.
You didn’t complain. You didn’t cry. You followed every directive, were subjected to CT scans and PET scans and x-rays.
You did everything you were supposed to do and you died anyway.
It’s just not fair. You went through too much. You should be here enjoying remission. We should be on our trip across country. You should be by my side.
You did everything you were supposed to do. And you’re gone.
