I know it's been a few days since I last posted, but I have been too darn fatigued to do anything other than hibernate for the past few days.
Radiation makes me so tired that I have to nap after I shower or eat, and yawning seems to use a lot of energy.
I have been doing one thing other than going to my daily appointments and sleeping, I must confess. I have also been watching as my hips and bum follow my vagina and change colour before my very eyes.
My chemo doctor says I'm famous again. (Did I tell you that I'm famous with the cervical oncologists at the cancer centre? No? I'll save that funny story for another day).
He says he saw the pictures of my lady parts (Are they stuck to a corkboard back there somewhere? Probably....) and wanted to have another look.
(My picture is probably right in the middle, next to a lady with elephantiasis of the labia or something) |
He and his nurse got a good look at it all,
then he said he has seen a skin condition similar to this IN JAPANESE PEOPLE IN HIROSHIMA FOLLOWING THE ATOMIC BOMB. Are you fucking kidding me? My vagina looks like it's been through nuclear warfare?!? I mean, even if you thought that, you still shouldn't have told ME. So, I came home and said to myself,
Me and my atomic vagina bid you all a good night.
You come across the dangdest things if you spend enough time on the internet. I have to say I was shocked to stumble across this. Just wanted to let you know that we're thinking about you and sending you our very best thoughts.
