As a whole I tried to be very positive about the help and support I received when I was ill, but I felt it had to stay truthful to what it felt like for me to be on the receiving end of some of the comments and actions of the less sensitive people around me. It was a major stipulation about publishing the book. I refused to have it published with the honesty edited out of it and surprisingly there was hardly any controversy over it. The people we needed to ask were very for it being published in this way. <br /><br />Anonymous #2- There isn't really a lot edited out of the book- it's not like I can send you full chapters of parts that are missing- its more like lines that were added or deleted. Even I can't tell you most of the missing stuff cos its snippets throughout the book. Like for instance there was a refrain going through the book where I kept calling myself a stinker- the publisher changed stinker to various different words like monster or baby or creep. If there were anything juicy I'd send it to you, but right now I can't really remember anything offhand they cut out that would have made a huge difference to the reader. <br /><br />Everyone else- there's another post coming eventually, but lately I'm just too busy to get here.J.A.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02731016571917740228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660195.post-33802329963209824002009-08-16T10:23:13.530-04:002009-08-16T10:23:13.530-04:00Hi,

Many of your recent poems leave me teary eyed and very appreciative for what I have. Going through a difficult pregnancy ( with an overactive and hyper creative two year old) you remind me not to complain and focus on the good. You must be an amazing person the way you handle life with such aplomb. My friend had your book sitting around her house for over a year; having lost her father and aunt to cancer she refused to read it since she claims reading should be for pleasure and not depressing. After hearing so much about it she finally glanced through it and perused it later. I must say you totally changed her perspective on cancer and with that influenced her life majorly. Your book has impacted the frum community to such an extend that I've heard people discussing why the ban on doing shidduchim with cancer survivors and their perfect kids-Kol Hakovod!<br /> I was wondering whether it would be possible for you to email me the part of your blog that you deleted once you published your book we have 2 copies of your book so that wouldn't be the prob.<br />I am planning on following your blog and continue gaining much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660195.post-44095418937098640692009-08-10T11:48:08.357-04:002009-08-10T11:48:08.357-04:00Hi Tzipi,

Then I heard you on Chazak and obsessed with you until I had this idea to google you. I sure was glad to see all your posts, blogs, site and stuff. Let me tell you I really gained a lot from getting to know you(:...!) but I have one comment which I hope you won't take wrongly. I have been learning the Chofetz Chaim's works with my husband for a while and could it be that your rants and kvetches against insensitive people could be perceived by some as loshon hara against klal yisroel especially when it is on such a public forum? My husband defended you by saying that if it teaches others to be more sensitive to others it is permissible. Coming from an out of town community where things like this wouldn't happen it bothers me a bit. You could ask a sheilah or maybe you already did. Anyways I love reading your stuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21660195.post-85925174181240018472009-07-28T11:03:30.739-04:002009-07-28T11:03:30.739-04:00That was cute and amusing.
