As we followed the programme, we occasionally had people we knew saying that they would pray for us, for a successful outcome. Regrettably, the first cycle didn't take and so we were preparing for a second; our last shot before the funding ran out. We would have the same people telling us how sorry they were it didn't work out and that they would pray for us, though for what they never said. Shortly after starting the second round, as many of you know, my sweet princess Sam was taken from me at the age of 31.
Nobody has yet offered to pray for me. They must sense that I will kill them.
P.S. Hope I haven't derailed the thread...
Holy fuck. Was it a result of the treatment, or something else?
Honestly after that if anyone said "I am so sorry, I'll pray for you" after all that I'd probably take a machete to their arm and ask between clenched, gritted teeth how they were going to clasp hands when they only had one hand left, and then I'd tell them to start praying to god to grow their arm back. Anyone who's ever heard my musing on how it seems miracles only seem to happen to non-amputees will get the joke, there...
