My partner, my mother, my father, my friend, even total strangers are all sorry, and I am sorry that they are sorry, and it pains me that we are so filled with sorrow because of this growth that is inside of me that none of us could have predicted.
“I would that our sorrow be channeled elsewhere.”
-Ted Rees in a beautiful essay on cancer, knowing, not-knowing, love, and Courtney Love.
