In 2019,

I lost part of my left ear





outside every day with my friends, 


thinking sunburn was the worst it can get, 

knowing people aren’t invincible but not really believing it about ourselves. 


while the nerves reconnected and the stitches were in




humbling me



not loving the sun any less,

but constantly carrying proof of its small victory over me.

In 2019 I learned that I am not invincible,.

but also I learned invincible and undefeatable are two different things


cannot be defeated.

One thought on “In 2019,

  1. Grace, I have dealt with similar skin cancers for 30+ years and am thankful, too, that it can be dealt with while friends and family are so caring. I will pray that your sun precautions help prevent recurrence. Thanks for sharing.
