In other news, I'm a Poster Boy! There's a website called Ihadcancer.com, that of course also has a facebook page, and they are doing this thing where they encourage cancer patients/survivors to say "5 words to cancer," as part of their effort to be part of a support system for people who have or had cancer. So you send in your 5 words and a pic, and they make it into a poster kinda thingy they put in the photos section.

Here's mine:

The actual page on the fb site is here:

If anybody here is a cancer survivor or knows one, I would encourage you (or them) to do this. It's easy, and if it makes one person have a better day it's worth it.

Thanks fellers. That sh*t can be pretty rough and I guess some might consider that sorta thing kinda hokey, but when you're going through it, support from others who have also done it can be helpful. I know I spent some time in the "Head and Neck" cancer forum at the Am. Cancer Society's Cancer Survivors' Network online during my treatment, and am in a similar facebook group still.

FWIW, I don't consider that 'hokey' at all :)

Good stuff. Spread the word. Stay strong.

As a co-worker/cancer survivor once told me: "Cancer is my *****!"

Haha, there is at least one website that riffs on "Eff You, Cancer!" too.

Freakin' AWESOME, Brian!

If there's anything in the world that deserves "the finger," it's cancer.
