I managed to score a $3 USD FON daypass here at the sixth-floor chemo ward, so I have (somewhat slow) Internet here for the first time. Since this is an 11-hour day, that's a good thing.

Colondar 2010 - a tribute to 14 colon cancer survivors who were diagnosed prior to the typical age of 50 or more - they model their scars and share their inspirational stories. The invasive cells that our bodies cannot naturally fight can so often be battled with early detection and appropriate medical attention. This year's calendar is particularly special to me as one of my co-workers, Heidi (Miss April 2010), is a model - Read and watch her story here. Naples, FL

Without question, this is the most difficult picture I have ever taken.
Regardless of your so-called "political party" in the United States, please take a moment and think about how you would want to be treated if you were in a similar position. I could care less about your religious background or your thoughts about how the world *should* be. For f-'s sake, America, react, for once, to how the world is, not how you want it to be in whatever idealistic conception you have.
In politics, normative arguments often cost lives and waste resources.
This awful disease has taken so many people from us, but there are amazing stories of hope, of support, of bravery and best of all, of triumph. This is for the people we've lost to the battle, the people still fighting the battle and for those who have proven victorious in the battle.

My Mother passed away in January 2004 from Colon Cancer that had metastasised to her liver. I was there, holding her hand, as the battle ended, and it has to be one of the hardest things I have ever done. Yet I am also so proud and honoured that I was able to do that one small thing for her. I miss her more than words can say.

In early 1991, Alistair took this photo of me when I had lost a lot of weight -- it turned out that I had developed diabetes and my body was consuming itself because I couldn't process normal sugars and carbohydrates. Once I'd been in hospital for a week and started taking insulin, I plumped back up again.
Compare this to what I look like today (April 30, 2007), when I have also lost weight (though not nearly as much) because of my current chemotherapy and radiation treatment for colorectal cancer. There's also an explanatory blog post.
UPDATE: After I posted this picture, I ended up even thinner after my surgery in July 2007.
Man, those were some big glasses I had back in '91, though.
