SIX MONTH FOLLOW UP – CANCER SURGEON
All good with Dr. Lim as well. Had a slight vertigo attack in exam room, but it was sparked by them adjusting the table. Still fine. I have no complications from the lymph nodes or the breasts. She, too, said it was one of the best outcomes she’s seen. She asked what my girlfriends thought and I realized I didn’t have any kind of celebratory whatever I’m supposed to have. I never showed anyone and just went about my business. Something about this made me sad and just highlighted how isolated I’ve become. I’m trying not to be pitiful, but I’m horribly depressed at times. Anyway, the cancer stuff looks good. I will go back again in six months.

Houston-based writer making contributions through truth- and story-telling. Sometimes dark, often insubordinate, and always raw, a balance is struck in each conclusion that evokes a sense of resolve to the absurd drama so intricately woven into our human experience. You will find short stories sometimes based in truth, true stories sometimes based in harsh reality, musings that may strike a nerve, writing prompts just for fun, and a novel or two in the works. Welcome, and thank you for reading.
