I love books, weird knowledge, cats, scruffy dogs, & happy beautiful things. I yam what i yam. Lung cancer known since 2019 - both kinds now. Lucky me it just entered my brain. Trying to stay alive till my boy is almost grown, hopefully. He is 10.

I made it to 48! It’s almost a miracle. I was diagnosed at 41 with young lung cancer and I have been stage 4 for over 5 years and now I’m also stage 4 with small cell lung cancer for over a year and a half. I am lucky.

The more I think about this quote the more and more I see it applies to my own diagnosis. I find myself too often still trying to appease everyone.

Sometimes self care looks like you doing what’s best for you and the ones you love. Don’t forget that. #Cansky

Srdja Popovic has shown us that protesters can draw a line, so that the dictator is isolated on one side, and everyone else is on the other side.

Right now, you can download a free copy of one of his books from the Cornell University Press website:

Fatigue that rest doesn’t fix.
Relationships that feel different.
A body you barely recognize.

Life after cancer is complicated. And most people don’t talk about this part.

Let’s change that.

“I would like to cure brain cancer. I think that's not particularly controversial.” Be that as it may, the NIH terminated that scientist's grant. Here's a huge survey of the 2,500 grants that NIH has killed or delayed...so far. Gift link: nyti.ms/43Jz1yJ
