pickI got my first invitation to read a book to review with a link to the book on Kindle Unlimited. I have 2 good friends with kids fighting aggressive cancer. I've lost too many good friends to cancer. #cancersucks
Anything that alleviates the pain and suffering is gold in my book. Even if it's only for a moment. This book is precious.
My brother Greg died on August 18 of this year. I had the privilege of being right there with him when he embarked on his journey to the hereafter. He told the best stories, was an amazing dad, and above all he loved fiercely. Here's a photo of him doing one of the things that he loved most. #cancersucks #thoughtfulthursday
Thanks @MoonWitch94 for asking this question. Sharing this is cathartic.
Really tired the last few days; the radiation is starting to really affect me. All I can do these days is just watch TV and play games on my laptop; reading just takes too much effort at the moment. #cancersucks
Am trying not to shed a tear as I listen to Judy‘s beautiful voice ; hoping next year I‘m not as sick and that the pandemic is largely behind most of us at this point. Sigh. #cancersucks #thepandemicsucks
Curling up with a cozy mystery for the #bakedgoods #booked2021 prompt because today was HARD. We had to say goodbye to Mr. Anderson, Maya‘s homeroom/science teacher from last year who was still teaching just a few weeks ago. #cancersucks
This is a teacher who even wrote a last lesson for his students that his wife read at the service today. 😢Maya is struggling with the loss of an important mentor who happened to pass away on her birthday.
pickI am just a puddle of feelings. What a delightful, bittersweet read. 😭🥺💖 #theansweris #alextrebek #jeopardy #memoir #legend #legacy #gameshowhost #quizshow #pancreaticcancer #cancersucks
Yup. (Honestly, y‘all, this is the best and I‘m not going to sleep until I finish it.) 🥺💖😭 #theansweris #alextrebek #jeopardy #legend #legacy #gameshowhost #pancreaticcancer #cancersucks #memoir #partofthefamily #nightlyritual #gameshow #quizshow #trivia #restinpeace
I am just so charmed and so sad but also so grateful that we were lucky enough to have Alex. 🥺💖 I got to be in the audience for a taping of the College Championship about a decade ago, and it was easily one of the coolest experiences ever. #theansweris #alextrebek #jeopardy #legend #legacy #gameshowhost #pancreaticcancer #cancersucks
I‘m sad already. 😭 (Alex‘s last episode, and the post-show tribute, DESTROYED me.) Like so many others, I grew up watching Jeopardy, and playing along every night at 7pm with my parents and my grandpa, so Alex‘s passing was kind of like losing a member of the family. Rest easy, Mr. Trebek, and thank you for making the world a little bit smarter. 💖 #theansweris #alextrebek #legend #legacy #jeopardy #gameshowhost #pancreaticcancer #cancersucks
pickI really enjoyed how all of the characters‘ stories intertwined and I appreciated Backman‘s little quips. Like most of his books, this one was very quotable. Definitely recommend.
Thanks for all the well wishes. I‘m on #6 of taxol. I‘m very, very tired, but I‘m pushing through. #cancersucks
