Summary
In January of 2021, I was given an “all clear” on my cancer. Nine months later my “all clear” turned into “two to four months to live”. To say that was a shock to me would be a gross understatement. The only way I could handle it mentally was to compartmentalize it in my mind and write about it.
This is how the character Terminal came to life for me. We argued, fought, laughed and ultimately cried together. I had no idea how to navigate my way through, not only the chemo, but the emotional and psychological changes I was experiencing. It felt like I had just been unceremoniously hurled into some alternative universe where I didn't even speak the language. On the other hand, Terminal, who can be quite snarky, a questionable singer, and rather stealth in his process of educating me, had plenty to say and understood the language thoroughly.
Suddenly Terminal is a book about those conversations and what I learned from them along the way. It is filled with hope, fear, insecurities, and humor. What is that old saying? Something like "It’s not the destination, it is the journey that matters"? This was my journey. Destination still unknown.
