“I love to see a girl grab life by the lapels.  Life’s a bitch. You’ve got to go out and kick ass.”-Maya Angelou.

I am taking this cancer and kicking it’s ass.  No one is going to do it for me.  No one is going to make me do the “right” things to make progress in getting stronger and healthier.  I have to go out and kick ass.  I love that quote.  I love many of Maya Angelo’s quotes but for some reason this one right now is just more fitting than the rest.

Even on days when I don’t want to walk, I walk.  I don’t want to shower even, I shower.  Or go out and get chemo, I get chemo.  No one is making me do these things.  I know these will all make me better in the end.  It’s the end game that I am after.  I want my life back and I am going to go after it and take it back.  Fuck you cancer, fuck you.
