手上的方巾系著粉紅絲帶,用方巾拭去臉頰上鹹鹹的透明液體,今天六月一日,抬頭看了頭頂上的陽光一眼,一陣眩光,時光開始倒轉......
第一天,i heard the news today, it came out of nowhere,知道這一天會到來,但不知道會是今天
第二天,五月落英紛飛,油桐花雪片片落白一地,微風掠過,花蕊紛紛落下,今天晚上,所有體力只足夠呼吸,應付每分鐘三十下的呼吸;『妳看看,是誰來看妳?』我的名字,是她入睡前,口中說出最後的兩個字。
第三天,肺部導管引流速度趕不上積水,不由自主張口呼吸,鎖骨上脖子上的肌肉隨著呼吸的每一下施力,氧氣由鼻子呼吸管供應,旁邊不斷提醒用鼻子吸氣。呼吸成了需要用力需要提醒的事。
第四天,晚上十一點,來的時間晚了,她不斷催促,『太晚了,趕快回去!』
第五天,帶著切好的草莓、蜜瓜、奇異果、芒果拼盤來,邊吃邊說著孩子們的故事,大女兒小時候被迫學鋼琴,邊彈邊流眼淚;老二寫的週記內容,讓她被老師約談;買了十三萬的長笛給老幺,結果他的興趣是在打棒球… 床邊的笑聲此起彼落,不絕於耳。
第六天,她說想吃牛排。老饕牛排是這餐廳的頂級套餐,或許餐廳第一次碰到這麼頂級的牛排要外帶,準備起來很生疏。果然是經典牛排館,她吃了半塊牛排,住院以來胃口最好的一次。
第七天,呼吸急促,三天無法入眠,需要住院了。
第八天,十年前發現乳房腫塊,接受手術,開始電療、化學治療,i cancervive.....
Maybe Tonight, Maybe Tomorrow Lyrics

I heard the news today. It came out of nowhere.
I wish I could run away, but where would I go?
Is this my destiny? Something so unfair...
What will become of me? God only knows.
And they say the road to heaven might lead us back through hell.
Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, we will win this fight and bury this sorrow.
We're so alive, still holding on, not ready to die, so we LIVESTRONG.
My pride is left for dead, as my world gets shaken.
The thoughts inside my head are so hard to control.
I am staring down the unknown, but one thing is certain.
You could break my body, but you will never break my soul.
And they say the road to heaven might leads us back through hell, but we're holding on for more than stories to tell.
Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, we will win this fight and bury this sorrow.
We're so alive, still holding on, not ready to die, so we LIVESTRONG.
