waiting to die
by: Nancy L. on Fri, Aug 01 2008

I got ovarian cancer in 2006 (or at least diagnosed) had the operation and chemo I have a clear cell variety. What is my life expectancy, I often wonder. I am waiting to die, as each day I know could be the day that causes me to go to the hospital and discover it has returned, but I continue to work, but know my days are limited. I am in a bad relationship (he cheats and lies and pretends to be in love with me but know it is not true, and he is with me because of what I have and who I am, but he lies so well I pretend what he says is true) but chose to stay in it as I do not want to be alone, and because I have a large estate I know he will not leave me. Is this how life is suppose to be lived, I do not know, but perhaps with death shadowing my life I am afraid to live any other way and a false sense of love and security is better than none.
