Motherfucking thrush.  My last chemo and the thrush is back.  FML.

At some point, I want to make a list of all of the little things that I hated about chemo that I never talked about during chemo.  Some of them were too embarrassing to admit when they were happening (like pooping blood) and some of them were just too minor to complain about without whining (painful scalp), but, for some reason, I feel like it's important to preserve an accurate record of what chemo was actually like.

  4. Icky!!! You are such a badass. You should write a book about this madness. A funny cancer book. Not that cancer is funny, but you are seeing the humor in a humorless situation, and I think you could help a lot of other people with your kickass attitude.

  5. My friend Mickey knows some publishers and they say the funny cancer market is flooded right now. I found that hysterical.
