Dear cancer: I didn't come this far just to come this far. https://boxd.it/dR5m1
One of my neighbours dropped by to say hello and to thank me for letting them rummage through the bins. #Ottawa

Honouring and remembering the children who never came home to their families and the children and generations affected by this tragedy. Shame, Canada. 🧡🇨🇦

It's #NationalDogDay .
Me with Darlington's Flamboyant Charles (otherwise known as "Chaz") 45 years ago. He was a bit of an idiot, but I loved him.

This feels like my safe space to whinge, and I do apologize. For weeks it's been pelvic cramping, then lower back pain, and today it's mouth ulcers and an odd kidney result in my latest blood work. Gonna go and look at funny cancer memes on my phone. I'm fine, really. Yes. No.

A cancer patient caught in the wild after two scans this afternoon. No waiting room shoe pics today. One week wait for results. Obv expecting the worst. The smile is for finally getting a call this morning with my next surgery date! #CanSky #OncoSky #Scanxiety #CancerBS

I went for comfort and wore shabby shoes to my physical today. Left with requisitions for pelvic ultrasound, colonoscopy, mammogram, dermatology, blood work, and a gyno exam. Still waiting for a surgery date to have everything removed from my neck. #cansky #cancerbs #oncosky #obligatoryshoeshot

I will now compose a thesis on why I shouldn't be judged for these terrible choices...

It's almost 4am. Can't sleep. Drinking a warmed-up coffee. Swedish Death Cleaning hundreds of books. Wishing the hospital would hurry it up with my surgery date so I can carry on this crazy living-dying life. Thanking these books and moving on. #CanSky #FuckCancer #ALifeWellLived #NoRegrets

Love your top knot. 😊 I've got two little ponytails. I can't wait to be able to put it up in a bun again!
