The Poojer

the week started off going to a brewery north of the philly area with a co-worker who was celebrating beating breast cancer. Then came tuesday.... - got an email, a friend was just diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, checking on the options, - next day a childhood friend texts that he was just diagnosed with early stages of prostrate, prognosis looks great for him. - Later in the morning another childhood friend is diagnosed with 1st stages of breast cancer, again, prognosis very positive. - go to have a beer for my friends, my friend, also a bartender there is sitting there, I sit next to her, we chat and she tells me she is on that side of the bar because she just found out that day her mother, a breast cancer survivor, was just diagnosed with ovarian cancer, she underwent surgery yesterday, prognosis still unknown. - talk to another former work friend, her mother has been fighting anal cancer, she began chemo and radiation on wednesday, again, prognosis unknown at this time - fast forward to this afternoon, my buddy diagnosed with pancreatic cancer on tuesday finds out the cancer he DIDN'T have 3 months ago is an aggressive form and has gotten to his liver....he is given 3-6 months doing nothing, 14 months if he decides to make his final days comfortable, he opts for the short term.....3 frigging months ago no cancer...today he ONLY has 3 months to live..... I know my dealing with these emotions is nothing compared to what they or anyone who has this disease is dealing with, but WTF...... and yes i know my attachment can be considered vulgar, I am prepared to accept warning points or a ban if it comes to that, but frankly I don't know how else to express my feelings right now.

no worries at all, you are welcome to your opinion...personally i can't wrap my head around your reasoning or justification, but that's ok, we can co-exist nicely. and frankly I don't care what the majority of americans think, i only care what and how i think and what and how my kids think, as long as what i am doing doesn't hurt those that are closest to me.

sarah bareilles is awesome...have we gotten this far without mentioning annie lennox? I doubt we did, but i glanced quickly

I just saw him too, he played and it seemed like he didn't even realize there was an audience in the room with him, very impersonal, he was awesome musically but we were invisible to him...
