The Commercial

Feb 20, 2021

A commercial came on TV.  I hadn’t been paying attention to it at first but then I recognized someone.  It was Brian’s oncologist.  It was then that I realized that it was an advertisement for the cancer center where Brian had been treated.  There was a shot of his doctor hugging a little girl.  My breath caught in my throat.  It might have been his child.  I heard nothing that was being said as my mind went into a whirl and suddenly I saw Brian and I sitting in an exam room as he shared about a vacation he had been on with his family.  Little did I know on that day, that there would be no more vacations for our family.  Not one.
