RE: Living through Liver Cancer | Our family's story on dealing with it
Man. That's quite the story. Seemingly impossible odds, this could have gone a dozen different ways and none of them good.
And then, whabam! A happy ending. So far, which is about as good as it gets in many cases like this.
Awesome. I'm glad that medicine, God, and her will all worked this miracle, and that you were cancer free, too. I hope all of you continue to live long and prosper.
I know this wasn't the purpose of the story, but as someone who likes to write, and hold people's attention, just let me say, you did it. Edge of my seat. The whole time. :)
Thank you Glen and to say that about my writing is really great.
I admire you as a writer and the way that you out together your stories and thoughts are superb.
Even your comments are well thought of and better than most posts out there.
As I've told some others, I've been at this for virtually all my life, so at least 40 years. I've wrote novels, off and on blogged and been on social media for more or less 15 years and I published newspapers for that long a time, too. So, with the experience I have, if I haven't learned how to put together coherent thoughts on paper or in a text window, I never will. :)
As it is, though, I think the secret is a love for reading, knowing how things are written grammatically (or at least written clearly, which the two are often the same thing) and editing. We need to read our own stuff more than once, otherwise, we'll miss things that need to be corrected or that could be worded better.
You are one of the better writers I've come across, too, so whatever you've done to get here, it's working and is definitely paying off. :)
You are one of the best that I have seen as well and I follow each post although I might now be commenting in all but know that I am always reading your thoughts.
