"Braced " provoked me to feel many emotions and tears in my eyes. But I don't always allow those tears to flow down my cheeks. You should write a poem. Then I read on to your reason of this "braced" I too am currently waiting for the tests from my mom and sister. They are both cancer survivors. We just went through this scare of the chemo therapy and radiation with my sister last summer. And we are waiting on blood work for myself, but it is not for cancer but I have a chronic illness called Fibromyalgia and We continue not to rule out Lupus entirely amongst other things.So thanks for helping me to remember why I am "braced."
