I just made a realisation this evening. While I'm expected to live till I'm old and gray, I am now involved with social groups that have a high mortality rate. My local cancer and blood disease charity has a patient choir which I have been a part of for the past year. Everyone in the choir has been doing well, except recently two members have had tumour growth and are looking for new treatments.

I've thought about my own death quite a lot ever since I was diagnosed, but not the death of others. But, I’ve been forced into a place where I am going to continue to meet and become friends with people who might not live as long as I do and that sucks. Cancer sucks.

Fuck cancer
