The Amazing People I've Met
The gift I've received is...:
I've met many amazing, supportive people as a result of my hospitalization.
The story behind this gift is...:
Sarah, Kristen, Sara, Lee Ann, Lockey and others at Overlook Hospital have held me up in a way I never expected. I have a support system which I had no idea existed the day before my mastectomy. It's a miracle gift to find such support for both the cancer issues and other life issues.
The loss corresponding to my gift is...:
Some people don't get it.
The story behind this loss is...:
I am scared of getting cancer again in the future. I am scared to go through it all again. I had a mammogram in January this year, which was awful both due to my emotions (in reliving what I went through the first time) and because the tech was an ignorant idiot (at a different facility). Not everyone you meet is supportive and they can inflict incredible pain.
