​
As my friend endured the trials of a cancer diagnosis, chemotherapy, and the relentless fight she must face everyday, she revealed that the most harrowing aspect wasn’t the treatment or the illness itself. Instead, it was the heartbreaking realization that her own body was betraying her, holding her back from the simple joys of life—dancing, laughing, and moving freely in a body that once felt like her own. Making the feeling worse was not being understood by those around who aren’t facing the same constant battle for their own survival.
Movement was the very essence of her existence. “Alive” embodies the unseen challenges of inhabiting a body that no longer feels like it’s working for you, highlighting the internal battle of a life yearning to be lived fully.
