CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN: GO MARIE! F--- CANCER!

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY SEVEN: GO MARIE! F--- CANCER!

I try to be amusing, but one subject that does not tickle my funny bone is cancer. My friend, Marie, is in the hospital, where she had cancer removed from her body, and now she’s battling an infection. This is not fair for her or her family or friends. She waged an all-out war against cancer about ten years ago, and against all odds, she won! Her beautiful blonde hair, which disappeared all together with the chemo and radiation, came back even more beautiful than before. She was back on the job, sardonic wit firmly in place and giving sage advice to anyone who entered her office. She had faced cancer – three different kinds at once—and cancer was no match for her strength, her will, her courage. This time it better back off too, because we need Marie in our world to make us better people. I do not doubt Marie’s strength, will and determination. She will not give up. And neither should we. Go Team Marie!
