For 'bout th'course of a year now, I been goin' out a day every s'often t'come home sick f'several. I done told people it was everythn' from a stomach flu t'thinkin' I might be pregnant.
Well, fact o'th'matter is I was goin' t'chemotherapy. I got Ovarian cancer, an' I been tryin' t'treat it real quiet. But I went t'see Carlos an' h'says it got shrunk, but 't'aint gone by a long shot.
Aint told nobody 'cause I thought I could get rid 'f it before I'd need to, but it don't seem t'wanna go. Don't need nobody's pity, neither.
Dad, 's ok. S'gonna be ok too.
Daddy Jack, make sure he don't go blamin' himself or talkin' stupid none.
Bobby, reckon this is somethin' w'should tell Andrew t'gether.
Mark, saw Jaime's 'round 'gain. If'n 'wanna spend more time w'th'er, 's fine. I un'erstand. Thank you f'bein' as supportive as y'have.
I'm fine, but th'chemo makes m'sicker than a dog, so when I get it, I need y'all to help take care of Andrew, take him t'do things, maybe take him by f'a night or so. An' y'all can see this 'cause I mean y'all, ifany one of you wants t'help, y'more than welcome.
But I can take care of m'self.
