No cursing, but somehow it seems wrong to even write it down on paper because it's not something a normal 6-8 year old girl would say LOL. They'd be fightin words!! Boey was definitely wise way beyond her years, and like you say in your blog...she had to be. You can't hide much from kids and she was well aware of what was going on with her, that's for sure. Yet, she also had the innocence of a child when she acted as if her tumors were just something she could beat up and they would go away...she did know better though but that spunky attitude is what kept her going. I don't think you need to worry about what Boey would think...because now that you asked, there is STILL no holding her back and she will let you know EXACTLY how she feels and what she thinks if you listen close enough with your heart. Not that she ever needs the permission to voice that, but now that you've voiced how much you need her, I'm sure she will be there right along side you in your battle....lifting you up when you don't even want to smile. I kinda understood it when watching her go through her battle (as much as I could on the phone from NY) but I really got it watching my father. They were clearly 2 different cases. Boey was in full on warrior mode from the get go, and my dad was in full on "I'm gonna die" mode from the get go. So my point being it really is all in your state of mind through out this battle. Sure, of course you need to take care of your body as best you can't, but you have to FIRST and FOREMOST....as Boey would say....BELIEVE...NEVER give up! I'm sure if she catches you ever giving up she will give you the proper kick in the butt to lift you back up! You have one heck of a warrior on your side through this battle Rick! I'm praying for ya! I wrote this here cuz I knew it wouldn't hurt to remind the world of just how strong and inspiring Boey was and still is :) Having known Boey through a lot of her battle, and getting close with her family…I think I know exactly what she would say.
