after meeting my wifes friend at hospital 2 days ago i had to smile when thinking back to comments i made on line concerning stupid things people say. we explained i have myeloma which she had not heard of [ why should she ] and that i was on chemo . from her lips came you look so well are you always red faced. so much runs through your mind ,look inside me i have punch holes through my femurs , skull and several ribs also a nice scar up my back where they collapsed my lung and removed my front 4th rib . but i just smiled and said its the steroids. it is to much to explain to every person how you really are and in their shoes what would i say?
