It was a place to keep family and friends informed of my treatment and get some thoughts and feelings out in the open. It does get very difficult at times to know exactly how honest to get with my posts. I second guess why friends and strangers are reading my blog. Are they really interested in how I am doing or do they just want to "slow down to see the traffic accident on the side of the road." I sometimes wish I could start over with an unknown identity so I could be brutally honest and not worry about protecting some family and friends from the pain that my words might cause.... with that being said I do enjoy writing and when I have something really important to say it bubbles up to the top until I have to get it out and craft it into a post on my blog. Some serious questions to consider as I make a decision about continuing this blogging journey. I started my blog after being diagnosed with cancer in 2008.
