Since I have been re-inserting myself into the real world, I have been surprised how many people come up to me and ask if I have cancer.  All women, older.  Then they proceed to tell me what they have gone through.  It is amazing that many people have had cancer.  I mean it’s really not, at the same time.  How did these complete strangers become so comfortable talking about their stories?  Does it come with age? Remission? Are they just so over it, that it doesn’t matter anymore?  Everyday someone knew comes up to me to share their story.  It’s so crazy to me.  I am not sure why but it just is.
