@TheAtlantic @CaitlinPacific This is such an important topic. Any chance you can make it free @TheAtlantic ? I want to share it with someone going through it right now. 🙏🏻
@TheAtlantic @CaitlinPacific My mom died of acute leukemia days after l turned 9, brothers 6 & 3. She lived exact 3 months they gave her post DX. What did my parents think we were? Door knobs? Everything crumbling around me, & not 1 opportunity to voice my fear/grief. Yet anger will express those. Don’t lie
