The Cancer Engine
I was there - once upon a time, now 12 years ago.
I made the following observations: 1. Take advantage of it and use it as an excuse to avoid going to events you never wanted to go to in the first place. LIfe is short, take advantage of excuses. 2. Use it as an excuse to clean up your desk - that will give you a few years after recovery of good work space. 3. Steroids makes everything taste like cardboard. There will be some items that you will never want again, because they still taste like cardboard. 4. Junk food, with lots of salt, generally tastes much better. I figured I had been eating healthy all my life and it did not work, so I changed my diet to junk food during chemotherapy. To hell with guilt. Milk shakes were very good! 5. If you get rid of many of your toys, it will take many years to accumulate others, and your wife will longingly talk of the good times as when you had the big C and finally cleaned up your shop. 6. I adopted the attitude that death was an irrelevant event. All it does is stop the aging process. 7. After recovery, you can decrease your odds of dying from cancer by changing your lifestyle. I started flying helicopters. People wanted to know wny and I told them it reduced my chances of dying from cancer. They shook their head. Been there, done that. Colin |
