Today I put stuff back in his backpack to take back to school. He is going to try to finish out the year at least. He’ll definitely have some catching up to do because he’s missed so much. In the past 3 years he’s missed so much school. Too much. From pain. It’s all been from pain. Do you know how many times we have thought that he’d go back, that he’d be able to make it one day and then he can’t because he hurts or was too tired??? Or. Or. He went and I had to pick him up because he hurt. Half days. Ever other day. We’ve tried everything just to keep him there anyway we could. Just like we’ve tried our best to keep him alive and comfortable. Most people don’t like to talk about that part but it is in fact part of it. The “it” that is cancer. Most kids can’t wait for summer. Most parents too so they can have a break from their responsibilities with their kid’s school. Not us. Not here. We just want a tiny taste of the one year….ONE year…..that was pretty normal. He misses it. So much. I miss it for him. And this isn’t Covid, this is cancer. All fucking cancer. Hoping he can enjoy what little time is left of this year. ❣❣❣❣
