Your story is beautiful. My son had leukaemia so your story really resonated with me.

This touched me in ways I wasn't expecting. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us, Andrei.

And hey, if writer's block ever stops you, here's an easy hack - just write a short story on the topic of writer's block! Here's a mini poem on the topic:

a topic on its own.
