Roll with the punches like Ali
October 26th, 2009
The third time I was diagnosed with cancer, it had spread beyond its initial boundaries and the early prognosis looked grim. The only thing I could manage to say was “I cannot do this again. I cannot do this again.” “Yes, you can,” answered all the encouraging, well-meaning people around me. “You just have to roll with it.”
They were right, of course. But when you take a hit like that, somewhere in the back of your brain, you can’t help thinking, “Yeah? How ’bout I whack you over the head and see how you roll with it?”
