11. You make me FEEL strong even when i am feeling so damn small.

When I drove my neighbor and sweet ole' 78 year-old buddy (who lost his wife to cancer this past February) for his 'cancer test', he told me he was so glad I (me) was there, before the test.

He faked a big smile as he walked out. I gave him a hug. He looked at me and asked, "Could you drive me to the next one because I can't do it by myself?". I said, "OF COURSE!!!"

He said, "I'm not scared but I am too damn old to fight and I don't want to suffer."

Breathing IN and OUT was all I could do, at that moment. Later on, I told him all I could do. He said I did more.
