Mind Freak

I've actually had writer's block since I first got word,
that the pathologist first diagnosis was completely absurd.
Living with "cancer" for the past 3 weeks was emotionally draining.
Now to learn it's benign....that's great, I'm not complaining.
But what an incredible Mind Freak, to prepare for this voyage,
the flood of emotions from despair to self pity to courage.

I know I should feel elated, jubilant, overwhelming relief.
But I am just short on emotions, this has been beyond belief.
I am greatly relived that this journey is nearly over
and as a result has brought my friends and family closer.

To those that love me and offered what ever I needed.
I can't begin to thank you, all your prayers have succeeded.
So I guess I'll have to rename my blog, Dancer will be retired.
Rhymes with Pre-Menopause? Or something more inspired?

Thank you to all my family and friends for the outpouring of emotional support.
I am truly in your debt and please call me if you ever need anything.

Waiting game

It's been a while since I've blogged, I owe an update.
The jury is still out, so now I sit here and wait.
Someone looked real hard and thinks the tissue is benign.
That could explain why I have always felt fine.
It appears no one can agree, I'm a matter of debate.
Yet, I can say I've been to Harvard, but didn't graduate.
My tissues were sent to to that great Boston college
to see if it is truly cancer we should acknowledge.
My surgery has been canceled, until further review
we'll wait on pathology, then we'll decide what to do.
So I sit and I wait, I wait and I sit.
I should be more hopeful, but I'm tired of this shit.

Tricia's Stand | Stand Up To Cancer

I have started a team to raise lots of money,
because there is much to do, its not even funny.
They've raised lots money for research and grants,
so I am doing my part since I've now joined the dance.
Everyone's told me "let me know if there's a thing I can do!"
Put your money where your mouth is and give a buck or 2.
I know the economy has tanked, no one's a Bill Gates
Do what you can, if you can, any amount would be greats!
