Inside Looking In: How My Wife and I Endured Her Battle with Pancreatic Cancer
In January 2010 my wife, Patrice, passed away after an eleven-month battle with pancreatic cancer. As I struggled to deal with my loss, I found myself fixating only on the events of the last few days of our life together, especially Patrice’s final day. In an effort to free my mind, I took all the thoughts that were swirling around my head and put them down on paper. That cathartic exercise became Inside Looking In, a story of how we went from living a normal and happy life to dealing with Patrice being diagnosed with cancer, and eventually losing the battle.
This experience taught me just how unpredictable and fragile life is; how quickly its focus can shift from living to dying. I learned that dealing with cancer becomes a daily process filled with a whirlwind of emotions, ranging from shock, hope, fear, and courage. I hope in reading this story you can gain some knowledge to help you face difficult times in your life.
