Hello, to all patients fighting cancer. My Mom battled & I know the most important thing for her was knowing that people close to her cared. Which then gave here strength to hang in their. Also the phrase mind over matter can give more power than any other thing sometimes. Stay positive & stay busy doing things you enjoy. Peace, love, & happy 4:20.

Well everybody already said what I wanted to, so I'll say this, the same thing my father told me when he was dieing from cancer

"I will not lay down and die, I'm meaner than it is..."

"After having been shot 8 times and being left for dead in my life, I never thought a lil bug would be what killed me" :Icantfindthehappyfacethatworksforthis:

He was an old cowboy badass that lived by the sword and thought he would die by the sword

This was also a man that had cancer all over in his abdomen (Kidneys, bladder, stomach, colon etc.), he couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, always in pain, but never let on, he wouldn't let anyone see what he called "weakness", and would still ride horses (not fun with a colostomy bag :( ), fall off and get right back on. I offered to take the horse back for him, so he could go back to the house and rest once, that pissed him off... I didnt really understand, I'm starting to, but I couldnt, unless I was in his shoes...

I have no idea were I'm going with this other than, I hope things get easier for you, and never give up! (but I'm sure you wont)

Take care 666

Maybe this will give you a smile:


Waxing . . . .

My night began as any other normal
weeknight. Come home, fix
dinner, play with the kids. I then had
the thought that would ring
painfully in my mind for the next few
hours:

'Maybe I should pull the waxing kit ou t
of the medicine cabinet.'

So I headed to the site of my demise:
the bathroom. It was one
of those 'cold wax' kits. No melting a
clump of hot wax, you just rub
the strips together in your hand, they
get warm and you peel them apart and press them to your leg
(or wherever
else) and you pull the hair right off.

No muss, no fuss. How hard can it be? I
mean, I'm not a genius,
but I am mechanically inclined enough to
figure this out.

(YA THINK!?!)

So I pull one of the thin strips out.
Its two strips facing each
other stuck together. Instead of rubbing
them together, my genius
kicks in so I get out the hair dryer and
heat it to 1000 degrees.

('Cold wax, yeah...right!') I lay the
strip across my thigh. Hold the
skin around it tight and pull. It works!


OK, so it wasn't the best feeling, but
it wasn't too bad. I can do this!

Hair removal no longer eludes me! I am
She-rah, fighter of all
wayward body hair and maker of smooth
skin extraordinaire.

With my next wax strip I move north.
After checking on the kids,
I sneak back into the bathroom, for the
ultimate hair fighting
championship. I drop my panties and
place one foot on the toilet.
Using the same procedure, I apply the
wax strip across the right
side of my bikini line, covering the
right half of my hoo-ha and
stretching down to the inside of my butt
cheek (it was a long strip) I
inhale deeply and brace
myself....RRRRIIIPPP!!!!

I'm blind!!! Blinded from
pain!!!!.....OH MY GAWD!!!!!!!!!

Vision returning, I notice that I've
only managed to pull off
half the strip. CRAP! Another deep
breath and RIPP! Everything is
spinning and spotted. I think I may pass
out...must stay
conscious...must stay conscious. Do I
hear crashing drums??? Breathe, breathe...OK,back to
normal.

I want to see my trophy - a wax covered
strip, the one that has
caused me so much pain, with my hairy
pelt sticking to it. I want to
revel in the glory that is my triumph
over body hair. I hold up the
strip!

There's no hair on it.

Where is the hair??? WHERE IS THE WAX???


Slowly I ease my head down, foot still
perched on the toilet. I
see the hair. The hair that should be on
the strip...it's not! I
touch.

I am touching wax.

I run my fingers over the most sensitive
part of my body, which
is now covered in cold wax and matted
hair. Then I make the next BIG
mistake...remember my foot is still
propped up on the toilet?

I know I need to do something. So I put
my foot down.

SEALED SHUT!!!!

MY BUTT IS SEALED SHUT!

SEALED SHUT!!!!

I penguin walk around the bathroom
trying to figure out what to
do and think to myself 'Please don't let
me get the urge to poop. My
head may pop off!'

What can I do to melt the wax?

Hot water!! Hot water melts wax!! I'll
run the hottest water I
can stand into the bathtub, get in,
immerse the wax-covered bits and
the wax should melt and I can gently
wipe it off, right???

WRONG!!!!!!!******

I get in the tub - the water is slightly
hotter than that used to torture prisoners of war or
sterilize surgical
equipment - I sit.

Now, the only thing worse than having
your nether regions glued
together, is having them glued together
and then glued to the
bottom of the tub...in scalding hot
water.

Which, by the way, doesn't melt cold
wax.

So, now I'm stuck to the bottom of the
tub as though I had
cemented myself to the porcelain!! God
bless the man who had convinced
me a few months ago to have a phone put
in the bathroom!!!!!

I call my friend, thinking surely she
has waxed before and has
some secret of how to get me undone.
It's a very good conversation
starter......

'So, my butt and hoo-ha are glued
together to the bottom of the
tub!'

There is a slight pause. She doesn't
know any secret tricks for
removal but she does try to hide her
laughter from me. She wants to
know exactly where the wax is located,
'Are we talking cheeks or hole or
hoo-ha?'

She's laughing out loud by now...I can
hear her. I give her the
rundown and she suggests I call the
number on the side of the box.

YEAH!!!!! Right!!

I should be the joke of someone else's
night.

While we go through various solutions. I
resort to trying to scrape
the wax off with a razor

Nothing feels better than to have your
girliegoodies covered in hot wax, glued shut, stuck to the
tub in super
hot
water and then dry-shaving the sticky
wax off!!

By now the brain is not working, dignity
has taken a major hike and I'm pretty sure I'm
going to need
Post-Traumatic Stress counseling
for this event.

My friend is still talking with me when
I finally see my saving
grace....the lotion they give you to
remove the excess wax.

What do I really have to lose at this
point? I rub some on and.

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!

The scream probably woke the kids and
scared the
dickens out of my friend. Its sooo
painful, but I really don't care.

'IT WORKS!! It works!!' I get a hearty
congratulation from my friend
and she hangs up.

I successfully remove the remainder of
the wax and then notice
to my grief and despair....

THE HAIR IS STILL THERE.......ALL OF IT!


So I recklessly shave it off. Heck, I'm
numb by now. Nothing
hurts. I could have amputated my own leg
at this point.

Next week I'm going to try hair color.
