This song was written by Melissa Ethridge she had with stood the time and pain of Chemotherapy...well these are her words!
"Fortunately I got to write 'This Is Not Goodbye' after my cancer experience.
I'd never wish chemotherapy on anyone. It's a horrible experience. Tammy, bless her heart,
knew that she couldn't do anything for me-there's nothing you can do but watch your loved one in pain.
I would go so 'far away' when I was on chemo; I would just lie there and make a noise every now and then.
It was the saddest part of chemo. I remember when Tammy first saw that I was 'going away,' she would cry.
I wanted to write a song about this. How I would go deep into my thoughts and think, 'No, no, no, I'm coming back.
This is really hard, but I know this will end sometime.
This is a BEAUTIFUL song written from her heart, and it touched me. Althought to some of you this song will mean nothing, but to thoughs of you that truly know me you know what this song means to ME!!
