I would like to take the time to thank all the shows out there that are supporting me and all the other cancer patients out there. First there's JR on All My Children who went so far as to really shave his head on TV, Live! I hope to look so good through all the chemo that has him puking his guts out all the time. His color is awesome! and in only a two month period of time, he is in remission with his Leukemia. Amazing!!!! Wonder how long it will last? Next I'd like to thank Callista Flockhart for bravely taking on Kitty's Lymphoma. Only problem I have is how bad she looked after just one treatment. She looked to be on death's door. Already sunken in with dark circles? Come on. Don't scare us. We don't look that bad on the first chemo treatment. Maybe it's because she needs to eat a burger. She hasn't lost her hair yet, will she? Or will she be too vain to take it all off? Felicity Huffman wasn't too scared to shave on Desperate Housewives...come on Callista, don't be a wimp. Izzy on Grey's Anatomy, with her Brain Crazy Cancer, and how she beat the odds, yet now, she won't show up for her treatments; just Bone-Headed. But major props goes to S. Epatha Merkerson on Law & Order. She is the best of the best. Her performance believable, her struggle real, she rocks my world and makes me believe I can do it. I can live with the treatment and do all that I need to do. So while I struggle with this Cancer, and the treatment I thank the writers and producers and the actors out there bringing it forward and not letting us sweep it under the rug.
Today, I am tired. Very tired, but I managed to do the laundry with the help of Ed, my wonderful husband. I am so ready for bed, and will head there soon. The meds make me sleepy, and the nausea is beginning to come on for the weekend. Thank God I have an acupuncturist appointment on Saturday. So with all the great cancer themes out there in TV land, I thank you on behalf of all of us struggling with Cancer. Glad to share the journey with you all. Just do us proud.
Nite!
Light and Love!
Melissa
