Conversation with Jack

Yesterday while we were driving to radiation Jackson asked me this question out of the blue:

"Mom, do you know what's great about having cancer?"

Wow. Hearing that question hit me pretty hard. What in the world could he possibly think was "great" about having cancer?"

His reply surprised me.

"We never would have met all of these amazing people if I never had cancer."

He teaches me something new every day- and he's right.
