Dr. Robinson called
March 8
We had just finished worship to open RMN this morning, and Dr. Robinson called. So I left the meeting and took his call out in the hallway.
The tumor committee met. They’re recommending surgery . . . and chemo.
I knew they would recommend chemo, didn’t I? Then why was it so hard hearing those words? They took my breath away. I think my voice broke as I responded. I can’t even remember what I said, but I heard the empathy in Dr. Robinson’s voice. And it unnerved me.
Then I walked back into the meeting, carrying my secret, hidden inside of me, wanting desperately to tell someone but not knowing how.
