I&#8217;ve come here
for healing.
I always
have even
when I was
better than
I am now.
Here I am
twice-times ill:
the cancer
they cut out,
the treatment
they say will
be my cure.
Nausea
fatigue, and
breathlessness &#8211;
numbness in
my fingers
and my feet
and beyond,
or perhaps
I should say
beneath, these,
my extremities.
I&#8217;ve come here
before but
now I’m here
for healing.

I&#8217;m learning how to wear hats!  Here&#8217;s how:    http://fashion.about.com/od/stylebasics/ss/hatdosdonts_3.htm
http://www.stylelist.com/blog/2007/08/29/how-to-wear-a-hat
http://www.hatladies.org/determining_the_right_way_to_wea.htm
But the best advice I got came from a Facebook friend, Steve (Honest Abe) Manning, from Arkansas, who said: &#8220;Give it a tilt and don&#8217;t hide your smile&#8221;.

We&#8217;re all going to die, we all know it.  As Mary Oliver puts it in her poem, The Summer Day, &#8221;Doesn&#8217;t everything die at last, and too soon?&#8221;
Hell yes, Mary, yes.
The poem then asks: &#8220;Tell me, what is it you plan to do/with your one wild and precious life?&#8221;
That is just the kind of question I&#8217;ve
always loved [...]]]></description>

Everybody says you are supposed to fight cancer.  Newspapers carry stories of brave battles against the disease.  And Western medicine pulls out its biggest guns for the war – chemotherapy, radical surgery, radiation&#8230;
I am having all those treatments and more &#8212; but the battle metaphor just doesn&#8217;t work for me.
When I was diagnosed, I had [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s the launch of &#8220;A Dance in Time&#8221; tonight and I have almost no hair.
I have almost no hair because I have been having cancer treatment and last week, it started to fall out.  In clumps.  (Great timing!)
