This week, I went looking for a card for a friend undergoing chemotherapy.

I was worried about finding one with just the right tone.

I wanted to offer hope while understanding that she is facing a very serious situation.

To my surprise, I found a card saying: “Sorry to hear that chemotherapy is making you feel like you’ve been to hell and back.”

What does it say about cancer, that it has its own card, or that it has its own biographer.

Maybe we should call it an epidemic and look at what we are doing to our bodies.

Just a thought.

Wellness is more than weight loss and exercise.
