Being a little chilly? No good. But getting a little cozy? Now that’s the stuff

Truly astonished that my clinic received 16 (SIXTEEN??) applications for students wanting to do their practicum with me for the Sept term. Absolutely wild. I’m so honoured and also v whelmed lol

Would be nice to have some precedented times, as a treat.

As a therapist I can confirm this would be a valid way to suss out how *impactful* (pos, neg, or neutral) you are as a human lol

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 11/02/2025

Also it’s wild that cancer is literally just a cell deciding, unilaterally, that it’s going to choose violence and cause unhinged chaos on the rest of the body. Ok that’s all of my uninformed cancer musings for the day thank u for tuning in (3/3)

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 11/02/2025

“Lemme go book a scan and get that tissue cut off of my body and then get it sent to a lab”. And then and ONLY then do you get a YES/NO/MAYBE This is Cancer. Is that wild to anyone else???? Idk maybe I just live under a rock and this is common knowledge. (2/3)

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 11/02/2025

Am I a naïve ding dong for assuming that science has progressed to the point where you can find out if you have cancer (or not) by doing a MRI or CT scan???? Cause it hasn’t, at least not for the type of cancer I have (DFSP sarcoma). You literally have to just be like “hm that bump is new” (1/3)

Cancer surg recovery has been going well :) less pain and more mobility as each day goes by! I’ve been quite low energy since Friday but I’m chalking it up to my bod In Recovery and that takes a lot of horsepower. Also @paulch.in has been taking very good care of me 🥲💕

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

Absolutely wild that the doctors sent me home after a Yeeting the Cancer surgery and just told me to take Tylenol lol

010

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

All in all I am feeling fine, just very tired and sore. I have to stay off my feet and keep the bandage on and dry (no showers) for two days 🥲

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

My stitches are dissolvable and I have to return in six weeks for a check up.

130

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

If there isn’t any more cancer (what they call “clear margins”), then I’m all good. If they find more, I have to get booked for another surgery.

130

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

The type of surgery I had was “slow Mohs”, where they take out the tumour with a margin around it. And then they slice it up into slides so it can be assessed for any remaining cancer.

120

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

They were done under two hours and one doctor got to work dyeing and slicing up the tissue to get sent to be processed. I got stitched up and we talked about sewing and cosplay lol.

130

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

We covered GOT, HOTD, the new Jerry Springer docuseries, our fave spots in Montréal, pets, my work, their work, etc etc

120

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

They poked me with countless pokes of lidocaine first to numb the area, and then got to slicing and dicing. You don’t feel pain but you feel all the tugging and pressure. I was sweating buckets and trying not to think of what was happening so I made lots of small talk with the doctors lol

120

phoebe chin 🍉 @phoebechin.com · 01/02/2025

Ok so what they don’t tell you is that for most sarcoma surgeries you’re awake lol. I learned that OHIP has scaled back using general anaesthesia for procedures, even stuff like hip replacements and knee surgeries. You’ll just be sitting there awake while a team of doctors is slicing and sewing🫠

Headed into surgery to get this cancer yeeted off my body, wish me luck

@paulch.in made the most perfect slow-roasted honey-butter pork ribs and they took longer than expected but we stayed up til 2am cause why not, make good mems!!! and then we hunched over the kitchen counter eating them like happy gremlins. I love life with you @paulch.in 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

imagine asking this dude to be your therapist. Cause I am this dude 90% of the time.

Funny thing about having cancer is that most of the time it doesn’t *feel* like u have cancer.

Watching people from the US migrate en masse to Rednote and discover they've been falsely propagandized to so intensely about China is pretty stellar actually.

I knew this piece about Neil Gaiman was in the works, and still, I felt sick reading it. TW: rape, abuse, coercion, and child sex abuse.

waaaaay too many people in the middle imo

a venn diagram. the left circle is “people who understand that climate change is an existential threat” and the right circle is “people who use Al, but, like, not for real work! lol! i just needed a silly pic of a dog on a scooter and it's surprisingly hard to find good reference images”

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder: we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now. the climate crisis is here, all around us

Saying it again for those in the back - Covid is a vascular disease, which means it affects EVERY SINGLE part of your body. Each Covid infection does irreparable damage, even if it “felt like a mild” infection.
