Today...

would have been my step-dad's 49th birthday.

You know, I thought it would be insanely hard - that I'd have a hard time getting through the day. But, it wasn't bad at all. Yes, I'd thought of him a few times, and cried once twice.

Day by day, it is getting better. Very slowly, but surely.

You're not the only one that's sick of cancer. Several years before my stepdad's diagnosis, I had a co-worker whose son died of testicular cancer. I was so afraid to mention that my stepdad was sick, and that eventually, he'd had some time cancer-free, because I didn't know how this co-worker would take it.
