Is Time Really A Healer?
There are endless sayings that emphasize the healing powers of time, but does time really solve everything?
I have a friend with sickle who was recently told that she is no longer able to have a stem cell transplant that was promised to her. Her dreams of a life free from sickle cell were taken away from her in an instant and she has had to come to terms with the harsh reality of dealing with sickle cell.
In an attempt to comfort her, I too found myself saying that “time will heal”, but I now question that phrase.
I know that eventually, she will be able to move on from this upset, however, just because time has passed does not mean she doesn’t hurt.
What are your thoughts on the phrase?
