Dear Chemo,
This is to inform you that I would like to no longer have anything to do with you.
I put up with the pain you have caused me. I took your mean attempts to make me feel ugly and lifeless. I turned my cheek when you tried to take away my smile.
I accepted what you have had to do.
I realize that in all the agony you gave me, you had a job to do. You were killing all of the cells that we couldn't see, and killing the tumor we did see. I do not look back at my experience with you as one of hate, although I never had any happy feelings for you.
I've lost what little but of hair I had left on my head, including thinning eyebrows and eyelashes, but I see new hair coming through. This gives me hope that a "new" me is coming in the New Year!
So, as for you, "chemo", I would like to wish you a farewell.
Un-sincerely,
Michelle - the warrior
