The Elephant in the Living Room


Why is the truth often the hardest thing to talk about.

We're wired. There's so much going on and keeping an even keel is difficult at best. Near torture at other times. We're both ignoring the spectre of death that is now so much closer than we wnat to think.

Pace is scared of how fast the tumor is growing and is afraid to talk about her possible death. I'm worried that talking about my feelings of her potential death is not providing the support she needs right now.

It's a topic we have to cover soon. Especially as we're updating our wills before the operation.
