#Migraine day. Meds aren’t working and the cat wants me on the couch (upright), not in bed. My word of the day is “endure.” Been reading other migraine-related posts to remind myself I’m not the only one….

Nobody prepares you for the quiet after treatment ends – the follow-up scans, the weird guilt, the pressure to be “back to normal” when you’re still exhausted. It’s okay to rebuild slowly and ask for help. #CancerSurvivor #cancer #YouBeatCancerNowWhat #oncoksy #cansky

In response to the dismantling of the CDC, California, Oregon, and Washington have launched the West Coast Health Alliance, which will make their own science-based vaccine guidelines, and make sure vaccines are accessible to everyone.

California, Oregon, and Washington to launch new West Coast Health Alliance to uphold scientific integrity in public health as Trump destroys CDC’s credibility

Your next scan is “routine.” But your brain doesn’t care. Heart races. Sleep vanishes. Every cough is a worst-case scenario. Scanxiety is survival mode reactivated. You’re not overreacting. You’re remembering. Be kind to yourself this week. #YouBeatCancerNowWhat #oncsky #cansky #cancerbs

Annual mammogram in a few days. Starting to feel the anxiety ramp up. Was initially diagnosed after my very first mammogram. No signs, symptoms or other oddities. Really wish those “know your lemons” memes showed a perfectly shaped, unflawed lemon as what cancer can look like, too. #cansky #lobmob

Healthcare professionals are trained to focus on the patient during a critical illness. After all, they inhabit the body that contains the wound, the dysfunction, the disease that threatens their life. But there’s someone else in the room who has been deeply affected by the very same pathology.

If difficult, upsetting, painful situations could be made easier by words alone then life would be a lot easier. Try and be kind and thoughtful in the words you use, of course. But words alone can’t heal. You can’t fix this. So be there alongside us as we try to endure. #cansky

Anyway, lots of great scientists have oddities, weirdnesses, and weaknesses that wouldn't seem to make sense if you didn't realize any scientist is basically just some person.

This is too wholesome

I had the most wonderful flight home from Denver. I met the nicest young man who sat next to me. He offered to put my bag in the overhead compartment and helped me with my tray. He was always polite, saying "yes ma’am" or "no ma’am." Anyone would be proud to have him as a son or grandson—so polite.

People walking by were saying congratulations, great job, or even taking pictures. I turned and asked him, “Who am I sitting next to?” I looked at his Jaguar pants, smiled, and asked, “Are you an athlete?” He smiled and said, “I’m Travis. Yes, I was drafted by the Jags.” I already told my sons I want his jersey.

He’s so humble and down-to-earth—I would have never guessed he was a professional athlete. JACKSONVILLE JAGS, you did good! I will be buying tickets.

United Airlines, thank you for my seat assignment!

I would like to see more nuanced representations of cancer in popular culture. The rules of the Gullen Test are: 1. The person with cancer talks about something that is not cancer 2. The person with cancer does not die of cancer #cansky #graphicmedicine 1/8

My first career was as bioscience research associate. My undergrad research opportunity was instrumental in finding a job at a research institute. Looking back my undergrad project was “small,” but it provided a solid grounding in the techniques of molecular biosciences.

Also ... it's not always a lump! Look for changes in your breast! Mammograms aren't perfect & often miss #breastcancer in #densebreasts. Also, #lobularBC - which is about 15% of all #breastcancers - does not make lumps & is easily missed on mamms. #KnowYourDensity #KnowYourCancers #CanSky #MedSky
