The Best Place in the World
It’s been several years since I have been back to Massachusetts. I miss a lot from up there. Food, sights, the ocean even more. One of my favorite spots to go to though, is seriously breath taking. There is a town, called Hull, and its an Oceanside town, practically ocean on both sides of it. They have some amazing food, sights and well, duh, the beach. I would go to Hull and sit by the beach side when I needed to get lost in thought, or try to work through the emotions or problems I would be facing at that time. Hull was a huge quiet place to me, even though it was super busy and noisy, especially during the summer. That never mattered because I always had a quiet spot to go too.

What Message Doctor Who can give the world
Ah, the world of Doctor Who. An outsider would be completely clueless to what the show is about. It looks like a bunch of weird strange happenings. Which it is. The show itself is weird, sometimes confusing, however heart felt. I couldn't tell you the amount of times that I have cried to this show. However, I wanted to speak about a message at the end of Peter Capaldi's run as the Doctor. We need more of this reminder out in the world, especially with the way the United States is going.

The sad things that I see
There are so many ways one can deal with their emotions, especially depression. For me, it's doom scrolling on TikTok for a good laugh. However, there are a few videos on there today that I cannot stop thinking about, and it's due to my survivor's guilt that I struggle with. I tried to go back and look for the video, however, TikTok totally did the thing, and I cannot find the two videos of it now.

Random Acts Of Flowers
Today started off as any normal chemo day, however honestly I thought I’d be turned away since I was sick last week. Alas, my labs were super this week, so chemo proceeded as normal. On the infusion floor, there are always two elderly volunteers who are amazing. They go around each section of the infusion floor asking chemo patients if they want anything from snacks, beverages and even warn heated blankets. Around eleven they bring by a small light lunch, half sandwich, chips, a drink and a snack for later. However something different happened today, today I received flowers from them with a person from the company called Random Acts of Flowers.

To Linkie: The Best Dog Ever. AI-Generated.
Dear Linkie, It has been a while since I last wrote to you. I just wanted to let you know that we are okay. The other animals are severely lacking in your department. They don't fuss at the water bowl when it's empty like you did. Little man takes after you which is super funny. We claim that you were really "his dad" with the way you treated him and the way he's growing up.. The house is a bit quieter without you here. I miss you more than you know.

The Struggle Of Emotions
This month’s Lupron shot has hit me hard this week while I have been sick. I have been struggling a lot with my emotions and cannot control them. My insecurities hurl themselves at me the first week of the injection and all I do is cry. It doesn’t help that this week I have been super sick. This is literally a two weeks after having norovirus and chemo was pushed back. Chemo probably will be pushed back again. Joy. And yes, this has been one of the reasons why I cried this week too.

Do Doctors Know Best?
My oncologist is amongst the worst people I know. He is stuck in archaic ways and doesn’t really care what happens to his female patients. This is what mades me so angry. My cancer could have possibly been avoided if he had just done his job correctly, listened to me as well as going back to his “Medical Book Standards”.

Lost Relationship through time
Dear Little Sister, Do you remember the first time we met? It was at your birthday party. For those who don’t know, my step mother was a clown that was hired for a party. It was a typical day for me. I was there to help hall my step-mother’s magic wagon, balloon holder and face paint bag grabber. Basically I was a pack mule. I didn’t mind it so much because I was getting paid to do so. Little did I know how much you would have meant to me in the future.

The Fog
My third treatment is around the corner and my mind is literally deteriorating. Chemo brain or Chemo fog is very much like pregnancy brain, but I feel like its a lot worse. However, I wouldn’t know because I’ve never had a pregnancy to last to the point of getting pregnancy brain. You get sensitive to smells, get dizzy easy, black out, however I feel like the worst thing is I’m struggling with communication it seems.

All aboard the hot mess express. Content Warning.
It all started last week when my labs before treatment came back with high kidney levels and low blood pressure. So it it got rescheduled for Feb 4th. February fourth came and for some reason, my blood pressure was pretty low. They were slightly concerned but we continued anyway. I fell asleep for a while during treatment and woke up sweating so badly. We assumed it was a hot flash and didn’t think it was something serious. I went home that night and hydrated as best as I could before falling asleep for that night.
