Unfortunately there are those who will live with the regrets learning the lesson too late. The ones whom for whatever reason, perhaps not being able to cope with the realities of cancer and just what it means, have choosen to stick their heads in the sand and behave as though nothing has changed.
I have no family aside from my son and daugher. Since my daughter still lives with me, she has unfortunately had to deal with all the day-to-day issues both physically and emotionally. I truly do not know what I would do without her. Unfortunately, my son is one of those people referred to above. One who doesn't want to (or can't) tolerate listening to what is happening with me to the point that I feel like I'm walking on egg shells and have had to severely scale back any specific details at all. It would be nice to know while I'm still alive that he looks forward to my calls and hearing my voice. The time will come however when he wishes he could hear my voice and it will be too late, for both of us.
