Standing in line at the museum and a woman is talking about her friend with metastatic cancer who is in remission. It’s taking everything I have not to explain NED to her. Hence this tweet. #bcsm #cancer

Prefacing this by saying I don't feel like a victim in any way, but living with #stageiv #cancer is like living with an abuser. I never know what version of my body I'll get on any given day or moment. Will I be "normal" me or the version that pukes all day? #GoodDayBadDayGame

When someone says I’m going to “beat” this, what does that mean? None of us will “beat” anything. We’re all going to die. Some of us just have a clearer idea of what will take us out with more physical challenges along the way. To me, I beat #cancer every time I enjoy the moment.

Horrifying experience for me with #stageiv #breastcancer. You are gamifying a disease that cripples on its way to being fatal. I don't take myself particularly seriously but when you flash words like cure or brave, you trivialize my very existence. Your pink party wont save lives

Where I choose to act and where I try to surrender in my new blog post "Why my life goal list doesn't include beating cancer" #cancer #stageiv #bcsm #bcmets everythingleadstothis.com/2018/10/23/why…

Has anyone here ever dealt with a feeding tube? I am unable to keep food down. No one knows why. And I can’t stop losing weight. Would be grateful for anyone’s experience. #feedingtube #cancer

Suggesting I give thanks for #cancer this Thanksgiving (or any day, for that matter) is offensive to me, my family & likely to others as well. I'm grateful for many people & many things, but cancer is not one of them. #cancerisnotagift #cancersucks

Guy who performed my echocardiogram told me about his friend with stage 0 breast #cancer. He said he can’t imagine what she must go through emotionally and then mumbled something about how I have it worse. Good times with folks who try to verbally process my disease with me. 🎉😂

Poor guy over at Amazon...called because they left all of the water out of my home delivery. I explained that I really need it because I'm sick. "Yeah," he said, "that sick think is going around." "No it's not," I said, "I have cancer." #AwkwardSilence #cancer #WhoHaveIBecome

Woman in the radiation waiting room approached me and asked to share some holistic therapies. I told her I was stage iv. She waved her hand, “That’s nothing,” she said, “A million stage iv patients have been cured.” Ummm #WheresThatStudy #cancer #amsm #bcsm #BreastCancer #bcmets

I’m on a runaway train and no one knows where the control room is. #ThisIsStageIVCancer #WishTheyKnewMore #cancer #stageiv #BreastCancer #bcmets #bcsm #amsm

Hospitalized Cedars-Sinai with a feeding tube because still can’t keep food in. Pain med they gave me is making me puke. And cedars is refusing the only anti nausea that works. It’s a #cancer drug my doctor gives me all the time. Why do I have to fight for this? #exhausting

Thanks for kind thoughts/well wishes. Hospitalized since December. Now in hospice. This is a difficult tweet b/c I wanted this process to be faster and more private. Not ignoring you out of anger or lack of acceptance. Was hoping you’d find out when I’d passed. Sending only love.

I am not likely to tweet about this again but please know there is no sadness but only joy surrounding This process. I will eventually feel no pain, not have to feel this kind of fight and I am no longer likely to field this kind of pain
