Not The Most Thrilled

I am home today. It has been more than two weeks since my diagnosis, and it's just hitting me now. It's strange how much a person's brain can just shelve away for later.

I am eating cold pizza, watching bad daytime talk shows, and making future plans for buttered popcorn and more bad daytime talk shows.

I am not the most thrilled.

When I went through a horrible period in my life a few years ago, I spent HOURS watching QVC, a home shopping channel. Not buying, just watching. My brain is still intact (mostly).

So go and enjoy your bad daytime TV. (And there are always info-mercials late at night).

If you knew how many times I read this post, you'd think I was a stalker or something.

I just kept coming back to it because I was hoping I could say something really inspirational or make you feel all warm and cuddly.

I got nuthin.

And how trite would it be for me to say I care about you when I've never met you, heard you speak, and heck - I've never even seen a pic of you.

In spite of that, I do care. And if you ever need a complete stranger to wail on, dump on, or just feel sorry for yourself, I can be that person. I won't tell a soul about the moments of fear.

And if there's any other way I can help, I will. Just because you are a human being. That should be reason enough.

delurking as i do, sometimes. much love and plenty of praying to the griddess for you. and the microwave popcorn? if you do plain and THEN douse it with REAL butter. . . it's rooster-worthy.

I do not have the wit or the words to express how much it sucks that you have cancer so I won't even try. I am moved by your plight and deeply saddened and hoping that you are with us for a long, long time to come.
