It is 81 degrees (27.2 degrees Celsius) and we have the back door and all the windows open. Oh my god it is so WONDERFUL.



Starting chemo tomorrow -- four treatments with a three-week interval between each. It was actually not an absolute requirement that I do this. The choice was left up to me. The way I look at it, I don't want a recurrence two or three or ten or eleven years down the road, and this is the best way to prevent that. Of course, nothing is 100%. Sometimes people do everything right and it still comes back. Sometimes people do everything wrong and it doesn't. But at least this way I'll know I tried. :-)



Meanwhile, in the category of Beautiful Things, isn't this the most awesome knitted cap EVER? Scroll down a bit for the equally awesome animated GIF.

It's not that hot here, but boy is it humid. It was worth it to hit up the farmers' market, though - fresh blueberries and duck livers.

Fuck cancer, man.

(((hugs))) Best thoughts to you while you undergo chemo.

That is the coolest hat ever! Especially the GIF. Wearable history!

I am hoping that the extra treatment means you lay waste to the cancer, but also that it's as easy on you as possible! :)

That cap is quite wonderful. I'd like to have one like it -- only without the tassel bit (I realize it's so that you can spin the cap around, but still).

Pretty cap! In Canada we call those toques. On New Year's Eve 1999, as we all waited for Y2K, I saw this Canadian comedian wearing one with MY2K knitted into it. "My toque, eh?".
Good luck with chemo (hugs)
