      My grandfather (Sit Tibi Terra Levis) told us not to worry and that he was alright when he started using a cane all of a sudden, that he was just ‘sore’.

      He later found out that he had a cancer tumor that shattered his thigh bone. He was walking on it with nothing but a cane and grit. Tough old guy, gods love him, but it’s okay to not be okay.

      It’s a lesson I’m still trying to learn, myself.
