Today is the day we leave for Cleveland! It's hard to believe that I am only a day away from treatment, and at the same time it feels like I have been waiting forever for that day to come. It's strange how the past three weeks have all happened so quickly and so slowly at the same time.
As if it knows that its days are numbered, my tumor has been putting on a pretty spectacular lights show in my eye the past few days. All I can say is, "Live it up, bitch...because your days are coming to an end!"
I'm looking forward to seeing my family tomorrow. I am looking forward to being surrounded by those I love. I'm probably going to start getting very sentimental. Everyone in my family - especially Graham - has shown real strength and that helps me tremendously. I fight not only for myself, but for the man who has my heart and soul. This is a battle for both of us and I've got too much of a life ahead of me to live with him. I fight because I want my parents and sister to look at me as an example so if the day should ever come that they receive a cancer diagnosis, they do not back away from it and face it head on. Being gay teaches you a lot in life about putting up a good fight and always being prepared for a battle. So...game on, cancer bitch. I plan on winning this one!
