I don't mean to offend but honestly that is the only word that continues to come to mind since I was told on Tuesday that not only is the cancer back but it's Stage 4...incurable. This year would have meant that I had been in remission for five years, which is the usual benchmark for being cancer free. Even more devastating is that I had finally achieved what I had spent five years trying to get back to-three months ago I started my dream job and was finally making plans to go to Turks and Caicos (the trip was something I promised my best friend the day I originally got diagnosed back in 2007). It seems that my life had been put on hold for five years trying to recooperate from the original diagnosis and the irony of being diagnosed when I finally felt that my life had moved on-well that's what keeps leading back to FUCK!!
I am still reeling from the news and will hopefully have more eloquent emotions to express as I start this journey...again. I appreciated all the love and support that I received through the following of my last blog and know that this will be my greatest therapy to kicking cancers gluteus maximus!
So stay tuned...
Love you lady! Years will not diminish the important part of my life you have been. You are tough, amazing, and strong. I hate that this motherfucker is back. You have done more than your share of fighting, but if anyone can beat it, it's you. I'll be stalking you here like a crazy loon, so keep posting updates as you can. I promise to pay homage to the Miami Vice Apts in your name today. xoxo

ReplyDeleteDear Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteI'm so sad to learn about this news. Having gone through cancer with my mom, I know how difficult this must be for you, and your family. I don't know that there are words enough in the world to help take away the anger, pain, frustration and fear that you may be feeling, what I can say is that you are an amazing young woman -- strong willed and with an incredibly talented mind on her shoulders. Use this strength to guide you through this period. I love you. Evelyn Aleman
Fuck is exactly what I said to your mom when I heard. Words cannot express what this means. Know we're thinking about you here in the harbors. Hugs, Elaine
ReplyDeletePlatitudes seem to be all we can offer, and so shallow, but they are not. As a long time friend of your mom, I follow your journey and can only believe that my frequent visits to you and your mom (mentally) somehow can strengthen your ability to fight this. Much love.
ReplyDeleteI am so inspired with the blog that you've shared. I thought that my friends from an alternative breast cancer treatments center will surely like this. Thanks a lot for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI have being on blog Sites for a while now and today I felt like I should share my story because I was a victim too. I had HIV for 6 years and i never thought I would ever get a cure I had and this made it impossible for me to get married to the man I was supposed to get married to even after 2 years of relationship he broke up with me when he finds out I was HIV positive. So I got to know about Dr. Itua on Blog Site who treated someone and the person shared a story of how she got a cured and let her contact details, I contacted Dr. Itua and he actually confirmed it and I decided to give a try too and use his herbal medicine that was how my burden ended completely. My son will be 2 soon and I am grateful to God and thankful to his medicine too.Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Disease…Colo_Rectal Cancer,Blood Cancer,Brain Cancer,Breast Cancer,Lung Cancer,Kidney Cancer, HIV, Herpes, Hepatitis B, Liver Inflammatory,Diabetes,Fibroid, Get Your Ex Back, If you have (A just reach him on drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com Or Whatsapp Number.+2348149277967)He can also advise you on how to handle some marital's issues.
