fuck it

I'm so sick of trying to be positive. Words can not even begin to describe how much I hate life right now. Fuck everything.

Fuck these doctors, who act as if I'm a junkie and won't even help me with the pain even as it gets exponentially worse. Having cancer is NOT fucking drug seeking behavior you fuucking cunts! If I just wanted drugs I could get them a whole fuck of a lot cheaper than going through this bullshit. Not to mention the fact that I'm terminally fucking ill and they give me a few days paion meds and expect me to somehow make them last 3 fucking weeks. What the fuck! You know what that makes me want to do? See if there's just enough to end this shit.

FUCK. God fucking damnit I'm so fucking angry and frustrated right now. All I want out of life right now is rest and help dealing with this sh it and I can't get either. What the fuck did I do to deserve this? I can accept that things happen for no reason. I've accepted that this. Is going to be a long hard road. Why the fuck can't I get just a little help with it? I'm in hell already.

adrenaline

Adrenaline pushes beyond our limits, enabling the impossible. Will power alone can make a man seem immortal, unstoppable in his righteousness. I will not fall. I refuse.

There will come a day when I can no longer stand on my own, but this is not that day. I will push myself far beyond my limits until this body fails. Even as I deteriorate my mind grows sharper. As I lay down for the last time it will be with the satisfaction that I lived as a force of nature, unrelenting until my last.

I am content.

There is so much id like to experience yet I am fine without it.

Stop asking "how can I nake it through another day?" And search for a way to help others find that answer.

Love passionately, live fiercely with out regrets, and cherish every day. You may not believe in you, but it doe3snt matter because I do.

You're beautiful

the weary kind

First of all, let me apologize for the spelling, gramatical, and nons3ensical errors populating my writing lately. You see, I am posting most of these from my phone. I have big hands and this tiny keyboard is no friend of mine.

I am weary. Not tired, but weary. Worn out, dragged down, beaten down and weary. My body is failing me, it has come to the point where I can no longer hide it. I can not pretend that I am not in pain, it is excruciating. Often bringing me nearly to tears. My allergies are nonstop, my immune system virtually nonexistant. It is like having the flu at its most painful, with the amp turned up to 11 at all times. I can't concentrate, sometimes I can barely walk.

My mind is weary as well. I'm too worn out to really care, yet everything hurts me deeply. This is not an experience I would wish upon anyone. I won't lie, I no longer care if I survive or not. I just want to be able to deal with the now.

However, I am so grateful for the support I have been shown. I am not normally an affectionate person, but a few people in particular mean the world to me right now. The little things they do have helped so much.

Thank you jason for being the best brother I could ask for and never giving up on me even though I've been so selfish at times.

Thank you Kris for truly encompassing what a friendship should consist of. Its a good thing you're such a big guy, that heart wouldnt fit in a lesser body.

Thank you tonya for letting me be part of such a great family.

Thank you katie for listening when I so badly needed someone to hear me.

Thank you matt, for helping me realize what really natte4rs in life even though right now it seems like ill never get that far

And thank you to all the rest of you who have sent so much love my way recently

Right now everything hurts far more than it should but the little gestures are just as amplified

update

Well 2 updates really. One personal, one literary.

I'm feeling a little more positive. Well less sad, more angry. It's progress I suppose. If this is god's way of teaching me patience, it is definitely not working. I still feel incredibly lonely, but I've come to realize that this loneliness is because the cancer is completely out of my control and I've accepted that no one can change that, not even me..

I've started transitioning to an entirely organic diet. It'll take some time, but ridding my body of daily impurities might help, even if only a little. Unfortunately lymphoma wreaks havoc on the system controlling your immune system.

I've had a lot of love sent my way via friends and friends of friends. It means a great deal to know that people care when you feel so down. I'm also pretty excited about seeing a friend who I haven't seen in a very long time. Hopefully soon, its nice having something positive to look forward to.

I go in for my first surgery june 10th. I think its a biopsy of 3 organs to see if the cancer has spread, but honestly I was in so much pain I can't remember what the hell they said it was for.

On the literary side, I've decided to add a few chapters to the first book before resubmitting it. That should be done by this weekend. I'm pretty excited about how it ties the series together.

Loneliness

I am lonely. Deeply, profoundly lonely. Lonely in a way that only trauma can make you feel.

This was my first weekend off in months. Tuesday I see the specialist who will start tests to narrow down the type of cancer and how to treat it. This has obviously thrown me into a deep depression. After all, it isn't everyday you find out you have cancer. Let alone, that you've probably been living with it for two years and it has already done a significant amount of damage to your life.

I was lonely when I decided to move back home. That was a different kind of loneliness. It came with the realization that I no longer had anything keeping me up north. This new loneliness is crushing. Part of me wants to crawl into a hole and never be heard from again and the other wants to live life to it's fullest while I still can.

I wanted one last good, maybe even great, weekend before I found out how long I had, how bad the treatment would be, and how quickly it would begin to destroy me physically. Perhaps this didnt work out because I was broke, maybe i'll try again next weekend. More than likely it won't be the same though.

I wanted to go out and have some fun with friends, so I could escape from the confines of my head. I wanted to forget, if only for a few moments. I want to pretend, for just a few more days, that my life hasn't changed.

Not all who wander are lost.

I feel like my life has been stolen from me.
My hearts been ripped through my chest
My dreams taken away
Hope no longer within my grasp
So many things that will now never be
I fear:
I will never fall in love again
I will never be a father or have a family of my own
I will never be blessed with another broken heart
I won't be here to watch my nephew, or any of the other children I love, grow up
Ill never know the joys or agonies that come with old age
I won't be here to see another decade pass
Ill never have the satisfaction of my work being enjoyed by others
Ill never have the chance to teach my nephew the right way to treat a lady
Ill never know what could have been.
