even on the darkest days, where i think nothing is good in the world, if you look hard enough… there is.  

thursday

• that there is another human in the world that shares the same name as me; and she is awesome.  she is curious, she calls me ‘big sarah’ and she has great curly bangs.
• that there is someone in the world who can keep me calm and measured during crisis, and she happens to be in ontario during the hardest few weeks of my life.  #itslikeweplannedit
• doctors who are experts and who are specialists in melanoma.  while i know that i had world class care in bangkok, when speaking specifically about melanoma, it was clear that the doctors were out of their depth.  my appointment with my surgeon here in ottawa was the first time i had spoken to someone who clearly got it.  it was incredibly reassuring.
