Whenever I told someone I was writing a
new book. they would break into a smile and ask,
"What s it about this time?"
When ! said it was a book on children surviv-
ing cancer, the expression on their faces changed.
Their eyes took on a look of pain. Their smiles
disappeared and their lips formed a firm line. They
looked at me with a pity usually reserved for a
woman who had just lost her bank card. When 1
explained that it would reflect humor and optimism,
the look changed again--this time to one usually
reserved for a woman who had just lost her mind.
Cancer and optimism were not considered
compatible on this planet.
It occurred to me that this is what the children
in this book see every time someone looks at them.
At the moment they stop being a kid and turn into
a child with cancer, the smiles disappear. Every face
around them reflects a mixture of sadness, shock.
