Harder Than I Thought...

The hardest part for me was kind of unexpected. I had to call my parents and tell them it was pretty much certain I had cancer. I rehearsed it in my head several times, but even when I said it, the words sounded wrong, foreign. I put myself in the place of hearing it from Katie, and it really choked me up. No parent wants to hear “I have cancer” from their kid. We had a long talk, and I think it reassured them, but they worry. Praying God keeps them close in his heart.
