One thing for certain about cancer is the fluidity of worry- is the treatment working? Will it all come back? How much will this cost out of pocket before we are finished? What happens when he is too old to be on his parents' insurance but is still in college because it was delayed from the cancer? He has come so far, but there is so much further to go- this will never end for him. It will be like the oceans of the world, surrounding him with darkness and fear in it's depths, but him taking each wave as it crashes, each riptide when he gets caught, and enjoying the beauty when he can. But, cancer is as fluid as the ocean, we cannot stop it or tame it, the best we can hope for is to make it safe and never leave him stranded alone on the shore or in the dark depths.
