(eye) Candy and Cancer

Sooooo, let's talk some "Ccccccsssss", eye candy, chemo, and cancer.
Here is what cancer and chemo can do to you.

  
But the tumor is living in me so I have sort of learned to accept it and it has just become a part of me.

But it is not like a cozy place to be and it is not my friend.

House Beautiful,  1999 Glamour issue, showed John Rosselli's ability to create a cozy  place.  His farm dwelling has gateleg tables stacked with books and candles.

  
                                                         Love, love, love, this table!


                           I feel the warmth that I don't feel from my cancer.


 
                                     Thibault Jeanson was the photographer. 

So now this is what I looked like before the cancer and hope to look like again some day. Because I am hoping my surgeon tells me tomorrow morning that he can cut that lung lobe and tumor out. That would hopefully give me 5 more years of life.

 

                              So here comes the Glam. Photographed by Susie Cushner!

These pictures make me think it might be possible for me to feel human again.





Wish me luck.
later.

  2. Nancy, you give such an insight there, when you say that it is a part of you but it is not your friend. I imagine you have had a lot of deep, horrible and frightening insights and realisations on this journey. I so truly wish you had not had to, I am so angry at the world for what it does. But I am so in awe of your attitude, and your hope. I hope that the doctors give you the news you want. Sending lots of love to you, Lucy xx
