F*ck it to hell in a handbasket

Cancer that is.

there may be 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon, but cancer comes back around to kick you in the balls in about 3 degrees I reckon....

Many of you know my best friend is fighting advanced breast cancer. I was reading our local online newspaper and there was an article by a guy whose wife is even younger, with a similar diagnosis and treatment timeframe and same hospital, so I read on for a bit, and he mentioned a guy he just met who is also very young for his cancer diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma (uncurable). treatment at same hospital, just started chemo.

So i was reading that guy's blog and apparently he was a kicker for U of Michigan football team and he linked to a video of him scoring the winning field goal inthe dying seconds of a game against washington in 2002. I thought 2002, well we already owned this house then, but I wonder if he did know they guy who lived here before us -also a U of m football player. I don't know this guy personally, but he's a neighbor and close frinds with several of my pottery friends, so I sorta feel like I know him because they talk about him a lot and think it's funny we bought his wife's house. plus we inherited the remnants of his football shrine in the basement.

So anyway, I was pissed off with all this cancer shit and googled him for shits and grins and guess what.... he has terminal lung cancer, despite never smoking. his oldest kid is 10.

Fuck this fuckety fucking thing.
