The "Fuck you cancer!" thread

[redslady]

Cancer, you tried to get me once and I kicked your ass.
A few years later, you tried again and once again I kicked your ass.
This time, well this time I'm tired. I can't seem to find the strength to do it again.
So tempted to give up and let you win.
Trying to find reasons to fight.
Family, yes, but do I want to put them through all this again?
I have to make a decision, but I can't even think straight right now.

You can do it. You have been down this road, know it well and know that you can do it.

Many hugs.

I'm so sorry to hear this, reds. That motherfucker won't leave you alone, huh? Major crush on you, the sleazeball.

You've repelled exhausting attacks, and it kind of reminds me of Lord of the Rings. I can't make decisions for you and neither can anyone else. It's YOUR decision how to proceed.

Yours. Your body. Your future.

You hold that, and no one can take it away. Not cellfucker. Not anyone.

So regardless of what you decide, if it's what YOU want, deep down, in the basement of your left ventricle, then YOU win.

 

[Sweetdaisymae]

I am struggling a bit.
A very close friend has been suddenly having issues with memory, feeling wobbly and tired.

She was taken into hospital where they found 2 tumours. One on her lung and one on the brain.
Whichever is the primary, it is at stage 4.

I am reeling. She went in thinking she had a bad inner ear infection and she has cancer, and it's the not nice variety. I am not saying that any variety is nice, but brain or lung.... sheesh! These are the bad boys, the life fuckers.

I couldn't say this any better, so I'll just second this.
Redslady, I wish you strenght and peace of mind, whatever you decide!

Everyone knows the third time is the charm! Third time down and cancer is NOT
getting back up. Putting your family through it again... I am no expert but what is
the alternative. Breaks my heart that you must do it again but I am hoping you
decide to kick cancer's ass one last time. I know tired. I really speak tired but I
HATE this disease and I am hoping that the pissed off person inside you makes you FIGHT
one more time.

 

[cmslt2326]

FUCK YOU CANCER!!!

Lost my grandfather, my father, my mother, my sister and my brother to this disease.
I fucking HATE cancer. It has caused my family unbearable pain and loss.

Thank you for joining the FYC Army. I'm sorry that you needed to enlist in our ranks, but glad to see you determined to win this war with us.

Yeah the sleazeball does seem to crush on me, but he's a cellfucker to the max and he's fucking with others the same time he's fucking with me. Never could stand a cheater. If I thought he'd leave everyone else alone and stay with me, I'd gladly fight that fucker till the end of my days.

Lord of The Rings, funny I just watched the second movie the other night. One line stayed in my head. Gullum: Leave now and never come back!

I have till Monday before I have to decide. Long road, can I walk it again?

 

[redslady]

You can do it. You have been down this road, know it well and know that you can do it.

Many hugs.

I know this road very well, too well maybe. I just need to find some hidden strength to do it again.

F off cancer!!!!! She doesn't deserve to see you return.

We will never give up the fight with you!

13 years is a long time to battle. You know the saying "The cure is worse than the disease.`` Sometimes it`s enough to make you beg for some sort of end.

I`m working my way through my thoughts, I`m waiting for my family to come back from holidays before I truly decide.

I am not going to tell you that 13 years of fighting this disease is not long enough. No one
knows that but you and your family. I get the chronic nausea, the constant pain, and the tired
of being a frequent flyer at the hospital. I really was not kidding when I tell you that I understand tired so I will send all the positive energy I can to you and I will pray this finds you
on a good day. Please know that I believe life is worth fighting for and as kick-ass as you have
been before I hope you have one more in you. I am well versed in cancer 101 and I would be happy to listen anytime. So sorry .....

Only you can decide when it's time for you to leave the battlefield, when you and your supporting troops have given all you can. No one who matters, or who understands any part of what you've already been through, will think any the less of you no matter what your decision is.

You know there are fresh reinforcements coming up to take up the guidon and lead the way to our eventual crushing victory over the cowardly cell fucker who sends in his Fifth Column to sneak into our bodies and attack where we can't see him until he's weakened our foundations.

It won't be this week, or this month or year, or perhaps not during the lifespans of those reading these words today, but our day of victory IS coming. We've found ways to defeat some of his troops, and we WILL find ways to wipe him out for good.

Fuck you, you overgrown cell growth that apoptosis didn't get to stop! Fucking mutation! You bastard! Fuck you for taking my uncle! Just fuck off! Hugs to all the cancer survivors!

 

[MadRose]

Fuck you cancer!

What a great thread.

I've been feeling a bit down, as July 6th will be the one year anniversary of my Mother's death from lung cancer. She was only 53. She came home from the hospital on hospice on July 4th last year, and passed on the 6th. I didn't know at the time, that hospices differed. So I was her only caretaker with no sleep for the majority of that time. So many regrets, but I'm glad I got to say goodbye. I think of her often, and she inspires me daily. She was a very interesting and amazing woman.

My Dad also passed from kidney cancer in August 2008 at home on hospice.

Fuck you cancer!

redslady, I can add nothing to what SW said. (True, that doesn't usually stop me, but whatever.) I can offer some thoughts of support and a big FYC.

Fuck you, you overgrown cell growth that apoptosis didn't get to stop! Fucking mutation! You bastard! Fuck you for taking my uncle! Just fuck off! Hugs to all the cancer survivors!

Thank you for your rage. It is always welcome here as raw material for battery-building.

I'm so sorry about your uncle.

FYC. FY.

Man. You have been through the cancer meatgrinder. That cellfucker pummels the loved ones just as much as those who "have cancer." Sometimes more, and in the worst cases, much longer.

I hope you'll reach out to friends and other family members, and don't be reluctant to talk to a compassionate counselor. Your mom and dad would want that, in the worst way.



You are welcome at the Church of FYC on any Sunday or at our midweek services, our new contemporary service, or any of our "scream, curse and throw things" small groups.

FYC, sister.

Thank you. It's weird sitting in bed and not having him lurking underneath like a little ninja-dog.
