Reflections
Cancer is just a word. That’s what I told my son Richard. Being a cancer survivor is just life. Richard’s life is not any different than anybody else, is just his particular journey, his particular experience. He just experiences a successful knee replacement surgery. He is recovering brilliantly. He will be out of his crutches in four weeks time.
I told him “Life is a journey; It’s not a guided tour." His experience has made him think seriously about being an Orthopedic Surgeon!
