Tonight the brothers were arguing and The littlest said to Mr. Blue Eyes. It is so unfair I have had to sleep on the top bunk since you got cancer. "Mr. Blue eyes responds with "Oh so you think it is fair that I got cancer. You think I deserved that. you think this was easy! It was not it was hard and it hurt a lot!' Frustration and hurt were taking over His body. He was in tears, tears that soon took over his body.
Layers of recovery occur even over a year later of Cancer free. I was actually relieved to see his anger stir and that he vocalized his journey as being hard. I am relieved that he has the emotional capacity to express this. So today as a mother I celebrate that he found a voice to validate his journey.
