Let’s Go!

Now is the time, and the hour will soon be upon us. It is now up to you to make it happen!

What is the reality YOU want everyone to know?

I think about how the months from October 2010 to the end of 2012 were what I still call “the lost time”, because I was in treatment, and then dealing with depression and fatigue even after treatment ended in January 2012. An event from that time comes up in conversations, and I just don’t remember it–just one of the million little ways cancer still impacts me.

I think about how I celebrated the first time, somewhere in 2013, I was able to stay awake from about 7AM until the 11PM news without a nap (note I don’t say I got to watch the whole news program, I only made it to 11, ha ha).

I remember having insomnia, and reading to pass the night away, and found an article about how insomnia can cause cancer, which….gave me more insomnia.

I think about bigger issues, less personal stories, that are my personal pet peeves in cancer advocacy world. If I see one more BCAM tweet equating early detection with early prevention, I swear, my head will start spinning, Exorcist-style.

What are the realities YOU will share?

Flex those fingers hovering over keyboards and smart phones…

Get ready, get set….and tweet, tweet, tweet!!!
