Numb
By Nancy Lindquist | August 24, 2007
I think I’m numb right now. I’ve bargained and begged, and prayed and offered to go back to church even. God is probably listening, but is not about to interupt the way the earth moves along for me. It’s not personal. It is, what it is.
I’m talking about my friend with cancer, Sue.
I want to fix it. I’m a fixer. That’s what I do. Have boo-boo, will kiss it. Need a plot nudge? I’m your girl. Have cancer? I can’t do crap.
I know I’m loved and my jokes help her, but I want to fix it.
I can’t fix everything.
It’s a hard lesson.
