Today is my birthday. I had a lovely morning and lunch with my two favorite people (my boys). I then spent the afternoon with my mom, and now am winding down for the evening. As a stage 4 cancer patient I keep being told that this is a huge event. I guess Ive been oblivious to its significance until today. As my husband enlightened me. I really do try not to dwell on the bad stuff. But its hard not to think about it when family brings it up.
I keep being asked what I want for my birthday. What gift? There comes a point in your life that you really just dont want or need anything. Its just stuff. Id much rather do something fun with my family than collect more stuff. Then again when a major life altering event occurs, it changes a persons perspective. So here I am, and all I can think about it spending time tomorrow with my kid at the park. Thats all I truly want, a nice afternoon with my baby and hubby, and maybe a visit to my favorite food truck. :)
