Wait, don't tell me - I've heard this one before. I think...

Had to laugh tonight. And I thought about my friend Kevin Hoyt - fireman/super-hero and founder of It Ain't Chemo - when this happened.  Just saw him yesterday and I know he's been here.

Michael is still out of town on a business trip, so I settled down with the dogs for a night of catching up on the few TV shows I actually follow.

I hit "On Demand" and saw a couple of things I hadn't seen yet.

Hit play.

Five minutes into the first TV show I realize I've seen this but I have no idea what happens.  Ah, "chemo brain" - the gift that keeps giving :)

For those who don't know, I'm a happy Cancer "thriver" three years out from my cancer journey.  The only real left-over from my trip down "cancer lane" is occasional short term memory loss, which is common for some folks who did the chemo thing.

I finished the TV episode and vaguely remembered something about it, but it made me laugh.  That's about all you can do at this point. Plus be happy that I made it to this side of the journey.

Everyone going through it right now - please know I'm right with you.  First thing I'd tell you is "yeah, it sucks." Because it does.  And you get to say that.  I want you to know that.

The second thing I'd say is "maybe someday the worst thing to come out of this is you won't remember an episode of some TV show."

And there you have it.  We have a lot of "It Gets Better" videos today about bullying.  Let me just tell the cancer journey folks - it gets better too.  Some day you might get to "the other side" and the benefit is you might not remember some middle of the road TV shows.

Gotta run.  Have another show queued up I may (or may not) have seen.  I'll let you know.

More wine...
