Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Sunday, February 06, 2011. One day I will step out of my body, and burst into bloom. It has been a really rough couple of weeks. I had the PET scan about 3-1/2 weeks ago, and got the results a week later. I jumped right into treatment again, starting chemotherapy two days after seeing my oncologist. Nobody loves chronic. And now I'm learning the difference between chronic and incurable. Or perhaps ultimately fatal, if you want a harder word. Chronic is someth...Ps Credit...

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Friday, July 01, 2011. Sooooo. I went last week and had yet another MRI (my eleventy-hunnerth) and then an afternoon visit to my oncologist. Following a week of out-of-the-blue headaches. Sure enough, I've got new stuff - tumors - going on in my brains. Baby squid! 160;OTOH, my intuition is working just fine, thanks very much. Saw the neurosurgeon Tuesday. Get whole brain radiation, for 10 sessions - I assume 10 days? 160; physicist? Love to you,.

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Beast Chthulu and bone metastases. In answer to a friend who wants to take me to the "new body store". She says, "I am familiar with lymph glands.but I'm not familiar with hilar. Where and what are those? So I am tactless enough to ask, what will the cancer moving into the bones do/mean? Is this unusual or par for this kind of crap? Are you in pain from any of that? Breast cancer tends to be "responsive", which means a high percentage of people...

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Friday, April 22, 2011. Several people have asked me how it is going - the answer is, Same Sh*t, Different Day. I feel as though I've been here before, I go back and read my old posts, and I have been here before. At the end of chemotherapy, running out of steam, physically very run down, family sick of it as well. Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play? I'm going to go off and make art. The hell with cleaning the kitchen or filing paperwork. Seriously,...

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Sunday, March 27, 2011. Bone metastases, henna head, and the senses. So when you last rejoined me, I was waiting to talk to my oncologist about the latest PET scan. I get copies of things like radiology reports these days, but perhaps there's a reason they generally don't release these to patients - I almost always interpret the news more harshly than my physicians do. Have you communicated this to your loved ones? OK Back to the main topic. On the up side, someone asked...

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Tuesday, June 08, 2010. Dylan Thomas, misremembered as John Donne. Do not go gentle into that good night,. Old age should burn and rave at close of day;. Rage, rage against the dying of the light. Though wise men at their end know dark is right,. Because their words had forked no lightning they. Do not go gentle into that good night. Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright. Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,. Do not go gentle into that good night.

Spirit, art and the cancer dance. Friday, April 15, 2011. How many is that now? BACK I have been in the chemo cancer depression cave for a MONTH. I think it was the worst yet. Why is it that I don't want to talk to anyone during that cave time, when my brain knows it would help. 37, going on 38 rounds of chemo. I'm going to get a gun or a saddle or something, and carve a mark for every round. Have Chem, Will Travel is the Name on Her Card. I have the boots and the jacket. Some chemo days I have had so ma...
