There are a lot of comics out there, thanks for taking some time to look at mine :) patreon.com/hoomph inprnt.com/gallery/hoomph/

I love the thing in Star Trek when they list a bunch of events and always include a real event from history followed by a fictional event. Such a cool way to immediately give credibility to the fictional one.

Finished chemo today Technically still have 14 days of pills until officially done but I am counting today as a big milestone Thank you to my partner, family, friends, all the amazing healthcare workers, and all of you for your encouragement and support

Update 7 Infusion 3 of 4 done. Cold sensitivity worse but staying top of it with gloves this time. Cut the tips so I can still tippy tap on my phone. Getting through this one day at a time. Appreciate all your support guys ❤️ Get your fiber and colonoscopies 💩

Update 6 Infusion 2 of 4 done. Deferred from last week bc my ALT was 407 😳 down to 154 today. Cold sensitivity notably worse this time. Feel more woozy kind of overall. But not bad. I continue to feel so grateful that this is all I have to deal with.

Update 5 Infusion 1 of 4 done. Feel good. Slight cold sensitivity and some tingling in my hands. Not bad at all. Pills start tonight, wish me luck. Appreciate you guys, thank you for all the support ❤️ Get your fiber and colonoscopies! 💩

Update part 4 Had a CT and some bloodwork today. Chemo starts 6/10. Doing 3 mo. Infusion every 3 wks and pills at home. Nervous about swallowing the pills and some of the side fx but overall I feel great about everything. Thank you all for your support, I love ya ❤️ Reminder to get your fiber!! 💩

Update for awareness part 3 Well it turns out I have cancer after all 😅 Just had surgery to remove part of my colon and everything went well! Feel so much better today and hopefully going home tomorrow. Doc still has to look at lymph nodes so I may need some chemo but I feel good about everything.

Update for awareness! Just had my second colonoscopy (this one with EMR) to remove a larger polyp that couldn’t be removed during my first one. Everything went well! Doc still has to review to make sure there is no cancer but she feels good about it.

To all my 40 something friends out there: please please get a colonoscopy as soon as you can after turning 45 or sooner if you have family history and insurance covers it. Had a scare recently (I’m ok but feel like I dodged a bullet) and I’m so glad I got one when I did.
