In addition, I tend to make up lyrics that apply to what’s happening around us when I’ve got the radio on in the car. Lately, lyrics have changed to me hating cancer, singing about his bald head or whatever else works with the lyrics. Anyway, my tendency to be a closet song writer inspired our cancer themed playlist below. Anything in parenthesis is a slight addition to the current song title to make it relevant…
To me physical art decorates space, music decorates time. This certainly isn’t an ideal time in our lives, but one that will of course be full of many memories regardless of the situation. For me, music is a therapy of sorts, both playing it and just listening to it and the same goes for Tom. He is feeling much better and very excited to go into this week feeling good. We are cautiously optimistic that he will continue to feel better each day and get stronger each day before our next round of chemo – it makes such a difference to start chemo strong versus coming off surgery or with blood clots. So enjoy our goofy list below and let the countdown continue, 36 days until chemo is over…
