Another chapter begins

October 14, 2017 by Emma 14 Comments

There are some moments in life
When the world stops spinning,
Your heart stops
And you know your life has changed forever.

Like the night I met my husband.
The day we said ‘I do’.
Each time we met our children
And the moment he told me he had cancer.

Time stands still but the clock keeps ticking.
Tears sting my eyes.
Shock and fear keep rising,
But love floods through me.

It keeps my heart warm through
Each life altering moment,
Etched into our memories
Like a moving sketchbook.

It’s the strength that binds us.
The one constant in
An ever changing story.
A story that is still being written.

Another chapter begins.
It’s not the one we want to read.
But I hope
It has a happy ending.

    My darling, I love you to bits and this is so, so unfair to Carl and your family. But, you have your writing, we have our writing, and while sometimes our blogs can drag us down, other times they’re here to keep us sane. I hope writing this beautiful piece has helped a little. Here for you always xx

    Sad and brave words Emma. So so sorry that you and your family are having to go through this. Cancer is indiscriminate, unpredictable and very very cruel…… Stay strong for the fight ahead. Thinking of you all and sending love and hope xx
