Oh – The Cranky Cancer Lady!

You have to know June to understand the smile on my face as I write this.   June has a way of projecting kindness, understanding, and an overwhelming readiness to help.   So imagine my disbelief when I pick her up for a doctor appointment and she is ruthlessly cranky about everything!

She commented about the traffic, red lights, work, her children, the weather…   dare I say, “everything!”   I put my hand on her leg and said, “geez girl, what got your panties in a bunch today?”   She started to keep her rant, then stopped and looked at me.   With a straight face she said, “no!  I have cancer and I don’t like it, ok?!”

It was an awesome comment.   She owned it full-out!   We started laughing when I said, “Oh that!”

I can’t fault her for that.   It must be so hard to find the will to just keep wanting to keep going.   (read that again!)

I secretly love her crankiness.   It is nice to see her being honest and frustrated.  It is a blessing to have her HERE to be cranky.   Bring it on sister!!!
