Overview

  • She recalled her mother telling her the illness showed that the family did not express feelings enough and needed to talk more openly.
  • Before the diagnosis they rarely said simple words like “I love you,” but Soha said the health scare brought them closer and made talks at home more honest.
  • Soha added that her mother had read a book that stressed the value of expressing emotions, which helped guide the change.
