Lost April

"Riveting, emotional and powerful. Anyone who has ever lost someone to an incurable disease can identify with this heartbreaking true story." 

- Sherman Hutchinson

For months, I lived among the fearful during the 2020 pandemic, but for a different reason. People I loved were suffering. With one friend dealing with a second diagnosis of panreatic cancer, another battling a debilitating depression, yet another was facing a terminal diagnosis from a surprisingly rare brain tumor. The bills previously managed by three people were suddenly thrust on my own shoulders alone. My world collapsed in on me. I would need to learn that I can't fix everything, and sometimes the only thing left to do is pray for the best outcome.

 

But amid all of the disaster, the most importantly thing I did with my time was comfort someone who lived in daily pain from the cancer he thought he had beaten.
