I am so sorry your summer is hosed. In your honor, I am grabbing my boobies and thanking them for their cellular ordinariness, no matter how droopy and aesthetically unsatisfactory they may be.

As I am a big fan of the whole “be grateful for the other crazy sicko things you have managed to avoid,” I present you with the following: you are getting your treatment at the same hospital where a friend of mine is also being treated for breast cancer. While her baby is at home with her husband. The baby she found out she was carrying JUST before she found out she had metastasized breast cancer (forgive me, I don’t remember her staging). She decided to keep the baby and underwent chemo while pregnant and nauseous with morning sickness to begin with, and delivered a healthy baby…and then underwent a double mastectomy as soon as her c-section wound healed. The first pictures of her baby will always include her lovely, hairless, gray, chemo self and a little, pink, healthy, gorgeous baby.

On that lovely note, be well, and many good thoughts from your newest reader. I hope we cross paths in the real world soon.

Damn, girl. So, so sorry. Your mosh pit is here for you. Let us know what you need. Much love!!

Still, they’re all rooting for you – your cancer team and all (I imagine them as something out of Nurse Jackie I don’t know why) – and they will also not be having a summer as they will be working with you to make sure that you’ve got the best chances of kicking this thing into oblivion! #FCFR!!!!

I am so sorry to hear this news. Anything I can do to help, short of flying to where you live because I don’t have a passport.
