Talking about cancer is scary. Not talking about it weighs so heavily on my chest that I can't even breathe.

[Han Tang @htntang]

Terrifying thought of the day: am I finally working off my cancer pudge or is cancer recurrence causing me to lose weight?

[Han Tang @htntang]

I don't want this feeling to ever fade.

[Han Tang @htntang]

This feels like living. This feels like I've finally broken through the turbulent waters I've been drowning in for months.

[Han Tang @htntang]

Kind of at a loss for words; kind of coherency-impoverished. It feels like I finally let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.

[Han Tang @htntang]

My port has been removed and my legs feel like jelly. I am so blessed. I don't know if I have ever been happier. I love you all. Thank you.

Cancer was a loss of innocence for me and I don't think I've understood the futility of the return to Eden more than I do now.

@BetaMomma Missed you too, wonderful lady! ❤

[Han Tang @htntang]

@pagerkryptonite Missed you ❤

I wish I had the answer to all this. It would save me a buttload in therapy bills. I guess I'll have to keep living and loving until then.

[Han Tang @htntang]

I still don't think food tastes as good as it once did. I don't think my laugh reaches my eyes. I question how sincere my smiles are.

[Han Tang @htntang]

It wasn't suicidal ideation, per se. It was just daily heartbreak that things never got better despite all of my hoping.

[Han Tang @htntang]

If I had one, if mine was to be a martyr. Because how many more lessons could God thrust upon me? How many more times could I bounce back

[Han Tang @htntang]

I, who always knew why she was chosen to exist in this timeline and what her mission was, began to question my purpose.

[Han Tang @htntang]

I wasn't supposed to have cancer. It felt so unfair; it continues to feel unfair.

[Han Tang @htntang]

I wasn't supposed to miss out on my sophomore year. I wasn't supposed to be bald and bedridden and barfing on my floor.

[Han Tang @htntang]

The way life was supposed to work was that if I remained ambitious and fought hard for what I wanted, things would fall into place.

@KeriCrewsonMD You are wonderful wonderful wonderful. If warmth and sincerity like yours could heal, I would be the healthiest person alive.
