What a difference a year and a bit makes.

Finding out that it was stage 3 was wild.

30 doses of radiation and chemo.

The pain from Radiation was a hell I could never have thought possible.

But I am officially cancer free. Just have to monitor for the next while.

❀️ honestly I don't even know where to start. I just... All I could say to my mum when I called her last week was 'what is happening, this is so fucked' over and over.

Can't sleep so, quick update.

Oncologist appointment was supposed to be Thursday THIS week, but it was moved a week earlier. It's not only in the original location, it's in my left groin lymph nodes (which was expected) AND (AND!!) 2 more places. Four!

....What is happening? This is fucked.

Well, it's been a week since I have found out that I could have cancer. The growth removed was 100% confirmed as such and they are only 95% to have removed it all. First oncologist appt is this coming Friday.

I will never forget that morning.

Surgery was a success. The worst part was having to take off the bandage this morning. RIP to all the hair I ripped out in the process.

The countdown to this biopsy is on. So much paperwork and playing phone tag with the pre-surgery dept at the hospital and telling work I have to take 2 weeks instead of just 1 week.. 17ish days to go!

Appointment with my Doctor this afternoon. Lots to cover pre-biopsy. And the mountain of paper work re: my job and surgery prep is beyond what I expected.

Probably just me… but I’ll take it.

Follow a block list? I need to figure out what that means and re: moderation settings.. Thanks for the tip! Everyone needs a bit of smut when playing "open the app in public roulette"

The slow death of Twitter has been hard for me. It has been a constant in my life for 14 years and I am still in denial that's it's dead.

So... This week can fuck off. Today I have my 2nd injection for the new medication I am on, and found out I need to have a biopsy... then found out the date for the biopsy surgery and my cunt of sister decided to pick ww4 with me last night. To say I am stressed out...

This week feels like it's been happening forever and it's only Wednesday. Fuck.

RT only if you are NOT becoming more conservative as you grow older.

Got a new white shirt. It's nice and crisp. So far have not spilt anything on it.

Probably not a popular opinion. But. When everyone is all "it's Seven of Nine day"... When you say 7th of 9, it means the seventh day of September. My birthday is April 14. I don't say it's the 4th of 14. It's 14th of the 4th. Americans, this is why the m/d/yr format does not work.

I feel so sad about my Twitter page though. I would have rather it just stopped working and just ceased to exist. Instead of twitching slightly like it's nearly dead but is still gasping as El*n is trying to get plebs to pay for his dumpster fire.
