    Too much to endure for long

    Dana looked around the table and was a bit overwhelmed by the love she had for the women and the baby sleeping in Bette’s arms. She knew how lucky she was to have them in her life. Dr. Shapiro had told her that the cancer wasn’t a death sentence but she couldn’t help the melancholy that suddenly came over her as she watched the sleeping child and wondered if she’d be around to see Angie grow up.

    ***

    Dana met Alice first but she’d known Bette, Kit, Tina and Shane almost as long. Though she had both her parents Irwin and Sharon and a younger brother Howie this was her ‘real’ family. These were the women that knew her best and loved her most. She hadn’t told her parents or brother about the surgery. She didn’t want to worry them and figured it was best to just go through it on her own. Lara was the only one that she’d confided the extent of the illness to. Being so self-absorbed since the diagnosis Dana hadn’t realized how much anxiety her decision to keep things secret was causing her girlfriend.

    As the date for surgery approached Lara was feeling the burden of carrying all the weight on her own. When she’d suggested that Dana at least tell her parents Dana had refused explaining that her mother would likely take over and she just couldn’t deal with the added stress. Dana pleaded with Lara to keep her confidence and said it was best to just keep the details between them. Lara wasn’t convinced this was the best course of action especially since Dana wasn’t managing so well but she felt helpless. Dana needed her to be strong. She was trying but every time Dana lashed out at her in anger and frustration she wasn’t sure if she had the strength it would take to keep going. She knew it would be almost impossible for them to get through this on their own. Lara sat back in her chair and waited to see how much Dana would say to her friends about the surgery. She wished that she hadn’t promised to respect Dana’s wishes but for now she wouldn’t interfere; after all it was Dana’s decision to make.

    1. DANA/LARA just needed to talk to each other rather than at each other.ALICE was off the chain when it came to her wanting to be with DANA,a little to late even for their friendship.DANA should’ve told the girls but it’s her choice and she prefers to just suffer through it with LARA taking the roll of puching bag .serious topic so take off the band-aid with a good pull and lets all cry together.pps thanks

    2. Thanks for this and for deciding to return to daily posts.

      Everyone deals with Cancer differently, some tell no-one and others everyone, it’s a personal preference. My heart goes out to Dana and Tina should be the one realising how she feels and doing something about it.

      Still reading and with dunnthat on the quick removal of the Band-Aid !

    3. Hey Bat, so glad you decided to post a chapter daily instead of weekly. I still remember the emotions this story provoked when first posted, the discussions got so heated they had to be moved to a discussion tread.

      Good for Bette to finally stand up to Tina and telling her some truth. I wasn’t happy that Bette let Tina walk all over her in S3 so your take is much appreciated.

      As for the Lara, Dana and Alice triangle – always thought that Dana and Alice were much better off as friends than lovers and for Lara and Dana to make a great couple … but ‘thanks’ to IC’s version we got Lara escaping to Paris, Alice turning into a junky and losing her mind and Dana dead by the end of S3.

      Looking forward to your next post.

    4. Thanks for this part andd the daily update! It’s so good to see Bette standing up and confronting Tina with her condescending, derogatory behaviour and all the crap she puts Bette through. Keep your story in that direction and I’m starting to make my peace with s3 ;-)
      Dana’s story is kind a hard to read already but as you said that you’re going to change her fate I’ll keep reading and hoping. I always liked Dana a lot.

    5. Daily update please! my heart
      It accepts up to a certain level of suffering and
      this suffering extend much he would need
      medication for my heart Tibette.
      And I hated to see the program by a submissive Bette
      It’s weak.
      The complete constellation.
