Barbara, she’s such an inspiration. A women with heart of gold…
Thanks to the people behind those organisations I may get to measure my time in years not months. Most of all, thanks to those organisations, we will one day have a cure for cancer.”
I have written about her, my friend before. I have also written about my acceptence with her conditions.
In our recent phone conversation, she said ‘See you during Tet festival. Who knows….[that I will still be here]?’
….
I have cried for her. A lot. But from now on, I will also smile when I think of her, think of the possibility of meeting her again. In person. I’m not blind. That chance is small. But it’s still a hope. And living without hope is not worth it, I believe.
These photos of ‘A heart of yellow’ is for Hoa, for Barbara, and for all of us.
Dear Ahn, I've been following the trials of your friend – my heart goes out to her. I am glad she has someone like you cheering her on.
Oh how could I forget this day? Shame on me..
Thank you Anh. I remember you writing about Hoa. I had a quick browse of her blog and will go back and read more. I feel sad someone so beautiful has to go thru such pain.
Big hugs to you and your friend
Thank you for sharing this with us. My heart goes out to you and your friend. I'm glad that you are able to both mourn the sadness and celebrate the beauty. She is indeed an inspiration to many more than she will ever know.
Live strong… I too know a few and have lost a friend to this disease… big hugs to you and her both
