Because you can.
Give it a swift kick in the gonads.
Because YOU can.
Don’t let it kick you in the gonads.
Because it can.

They say that a man only goes to the hospital if it involves his penis.
After I saw this sign at Princess Margaret Hospital today, I’m starting to believe it :
Believe me, I don’t think that cancer is all moon beams and fairy dust.
It’s not.
It can be a mother f*%$er.
Yes , that is a strong word. It is so strong, I didn’t dare spell the whole word out.
My mother and my dog read this blog. I have a reputation to uphold.
After that F-bomb, my reputation may have just stepped out the door. haha!
Truth is:
Cancer can be a Debbie Downer on all levels. Just ask anyone who is fighting the good fight. It is wicked. Wicked on epic levels of wickedness. There are many times when each and every one of us want to punch cancer in the head.
So yes -
CANCER – You can KISS my ASS. <– a blog post about cancer.
And it is also about LIVING.
Cancer can KISS your ass too. Go ahead.
Try it.
It freaking rocks to tell cancer to kiss it.
Kiss it where the sun don’t shine.
Here is what I choose:
I choose to focus on the success stories. Like Michael. Like so many others who give it all they’ve got.
I think he is a success story. I think they are a success story.
Michael is successfully alive.

Men, women, and children….they find ways to slap the C outta Cancer.

Cancer is like having a monkey on your back.
~
Sometimes it plays with your hair,
Sometimes it plays funny games,
Sometimes it takes a big crap on your shirt.
~
You can quote me on that.
MOST IMPORTANTLY :
For each and every one of you who are touched by cancer…remember this….
AND one thing is for sure….
For all of you who are touched by cancer : fight the good fight.
Fight it with all you’ve got.
Do you know someone with cancer? Hold their hand.
Tell them that you love them.
Because it matters. It really matters.
Do you have cancer? Fight it like it is the most important thing you will ever do in your life.
Because it matters. It really matters.
Punch cancer in the face.
STOMP ON CANCER like it stole your wallet.
BELIEVE.
DO EPIC SHIT.
Because it matters. It really matters.
Big love,

Good for you potty mouth (laughing). You’ve been listening to Tony Robbins talk to 6000 people. I think he rubbed off on you – oh wouldn’t he like that?! Too funny.
You speak the truth about men only going to the dr. only when it involves their penis. That’s, after all, my story and … I’m sticking to it!
As for your post, you must know what an inspiration you are to me. We are so blessed in our lives and I love how we can share our story and have FUN doing it.
I remind myself daily of the GRATITUDE I have for all we have in our lives. I am a can-cer viver and I believe in miracles. We make a great team.
Post again soon.
Michael. Xoxo
Aww…you two love birds are sooo beautiful. Sorry, I’m butting in this beautiful solo moment with you! Haha…I just love intruding. I also love your wife, Michael. Well, not as much as you do, I’m sure and not in the same way:-) I’m one of the designers she met up in Chicago last April. She’s a hoot! Thanks for sharing her with us…
Rose
p.s. glad you’re kickin’ the C out of cancer!
Stop Rose,
Michael is going to begin to wonder what we did in Chicago. LOL!!! And you can butt in any time BUT it would be best if you butt in to the TREEHOUSE for some awesome treehouse convo’s. I seriously think we need to plan a tweet up girls road trip!!
Love ya,
Lynne xx
Butt, butt, butt, Lynne!!! TREEHOUSE tweet-up? YAAAYYY!!!! Better start planning….
xoxo <-this means love ya, right?
Rose
I love you with all my heart and soul sweetheart. xx
Good for Michael, and good for you. So glad that Michael beat the “c” word. Must fight always, My Mother was given 6 mos to live stage 4 Inflammatory breast cancer 8 yrs ago she is still cancer free, Thank God! You fight the good fight and I am so happy for you both.
Suzanne-
That is so freaking incredible. Stage 4? 6 months to live? Your Mom is a walking miracle. How AWESOME! xx
She had a double mastectomy, 6 months of Chemo followed by 6 months radiation. It is a total miracle. Inflammatory breast cancer doesn’t usually present until its stage 3 or stage 4. She lives in small town in oklahoma her doc told her it was cancer in his opinion but couldn’t do anything because he was going on vacation. Really???? i flew her to NYC the next day and she was seen the same day here. Thank God!
Gurl!!!
You know how to move a mountain to make things happen. Good on ya!!
Double hug for that one!!!!!
xx
How is It that you just made me crack up laughing and cry both at the same time?
I totally love you!!
Suck it cancer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yah !!! SUCK IT CANCER. Put that in your cancer pipe, and smoke it.
Love you,
Lynne xx
