Borrowed Skirts

You have really not lived until you have peed yourself in public. While marching in a parade. In front of 2000 people. One mile from your car. In a white skirt that you borrowed from a co-worker. Which she borrowed from a friend. They say ovarian cancer whispers. Peeing yourself is pretty much of a shout-out. When your body does something really funky—like spontaneously relieving itself —get it checked out. I don’t know what it is with the “C” but it likes to show its ugly head by embarrassing the crap out of you—literally. Don’t ignore it. Chances are it’s not the “C” but you don’t know until you know.

Ignoring the signs is another “fun” thing I wish I didn’t know about Cancer.

  1. Not wanting to scare my daughter or incur her displeasure by hounding her to get her symptoms checked sooner is one of the "FUN" things I wish I didn't know about cancer. Moms, sisters, friends, coworkers, DARE TO NAG. BE THE BITCH. DON'T WORRY ABOUT MESSIN' WHERE YOU SHOULDN'T BE MESSIN'-you can always apologize,, but you can't turn back the clock for a do-over.
