In the words of Ross Geller, "hi"
They say “ You look so good!”
She smiles.
She claps back,”I have cancer, Im not ugly.”
She smiles.
It’s hilarious. Everyone laughs.
It’s her favorite joke.
She smiles.
They grin. “wow she is doing so well, shes able to make light of her situation. How admirable. It feels so good to know she’s doing ok”
She smiles
Her actions are speaking louder than her words;
they always have.
She smiles.
She’s smiling, She’s bright, she’s laughing, she’s living,
she’s planning, she’s growing, she’s learning.
She smiles.
She loves her red hair - long, fine, golden.
She smiles.
Her hair is thinning.
She smiles.
Her braid is getting thinner and thinner.
She smiles .
She doesnt complain because other women had to lose their hair.
Some more than once.
Some never have the opportunity for it to grow back.
She smiles.
Is her youth gone?
She smiles.
Everything is different
She smiles.
Her body temperature is always high.
She smiles.
She cant wear contacts; her eyes dry out.
She smiles.
She cant be very active - it’s too tiring.
She smiles.
She doesn’t sleep well.
She smiles.
She cant lift heavy, a contrast to her past 30 years
She smiles.
When will her spine fracture?
She smiles.
Will it be her hip?
She smiles.
She gets headaches.
She smiles.
She gets nauseous.
She smiles.
She ignores all of this.
She smiles.
The words are too loud in her head.
She smiles.
She’s dying.
She smiles.
Only appropriate for lord farquad to have a cameo of the artist behind the bob!
But also, we're going to email your senators.
A reminder: you do not need to be an expert, activist, or lawyer to contact your senators.
You can call or write about anything that matters to you — cancer research funding, healthcare access, disability rights, immigration concerns, or complaints about federal actions.
Offices track constituent messages. Calls are logged. Emails are counted.
It takes 2–5 minutes, and it does make a difference.
👉 Find your senators here:
🔗 https://www.senate.gov/senators
🔗 https://www.usa.gov/elected-officials
Your voice isn’t too small. Use it.
Don’t know what to say? Try this:
“I’m a constituent calling about an issue that matters to me. I’d like the Senator to support action on this.”
That’s it.

The results are a lot to take in. What seems like new information to me is described as consistent with my diagnosis. Ive been sitting with it for a week.
I cant tell you why.
I cant tell you have I feel.
But glad my cancer is stable 💗✨️
