My name is Nicky. I was at work when I got the phone call that divided my life in half. Before Cancer and After Cancer.
Blissfully unaware and hyperaware (is that even a word?) of every move, every ache.
I can tell you that I literally turned around in my classroom to look behind me-because I thought my doctor was talking to the wrong patient. I can tell you that I heard church bells ringing in my head, and my body went numb.
My preschool students walked into the classroom where I was the Teaching Assistant. Smiles on their faces; back from holiday. And that is how I remember everything changed.
