Katie *makes inappropriate cancer joke at chemo, today.* One of my favourite nurses: 'I love you. I've never said that to a patient but I genuinely love you'. #LifeOfAFourthStager

Are you following our #LivingOutLoud campaign? Were sharing 100 stories in 100 days to shatter the silence of being young & living with advanced illness. #ayacsm #ayacancer #hpm cc @CancerStratCA YACC Team Shan (Lorna Larsen) @CSPCP_SCMSP CHPCA x.com/VirtualHospice…

My brother had a doctor's appointment with our childhood GP. Apparently, I need to get my ass to church.

I'm curious to know how people envision their cancers in terms of physical traits. Colour? Shape? Size? Or does it have tentacles? Have you personified it? To be clear, I'm not looking for a picture of what cancer actually looks like, I am curious to know your interpretations.

*** Whispering & Cancer *** Last night, a fellow CT scan patient whispered 'How old are you?' after asking if I was in treatment. We all hear the word 'cancer' whispered in many contexts. Why? Is the intention to be sensitive? #LifeOfAFourthStager

I was diagnosed with terminal cancer nine days before our wedding. Walking down the aisle knowing I was dying was tough: thinking about my groom remarrying was tougher.

My week off from chemo is my hardest. I throw up more and my nausea is making itself known. #SideEffucks #LifeOfAFourthStager

Christmas is very much a marker for me in terms of surviving another year. I can't believe Christmas Eve is in only eight months. I'm not wishing any time away, I just hope I get to celebrate Christmas 2019. Do you have a #SurvivalMarker or date? Your birthday or cancerversary?

@PerriTutelman Maggie Rogers Canadian Virtual Hospice Great reminder, @PerriTutelman !! We helped develop this initiative: livingoutloud.life which features the voices of many young adults such as Katie Davidson #HPM #AYACSM

My brother couldn't remember the word for 'MEMORY' foam.

MY DAY: Woke up 'Don't throw up...' 'Don't throw up...' 'Don't throw up...' *Choke down prescriptions* *Manage not to throw up* *Eat something* 'Don't throw up...' 'Don't throw up...' 'Don't throw up...' ...you see where this is going. #LifeOfAFourthStager

Is there a 'Couch to 5k' equivalent for cancer patients? I'm looking for more of a 'Bed-ridden to 5 steps without the help of my walker' app. #LifeOfAFourthStager

The incredible @ChickadeeReiki visited me today for an incredible reflexology session. France, you have the touch of an angel. I stayed in the same position that you left me in for at least an hour. Thank you.

On the last Saturday of April, we draw hearts and post pictures tagged with #YACCRemembers so we can find stories, see faces, and feel connected to others who know what it means to belong to and support this community. We hope remembering helps bring you peace.

Reaching the #MBC 3yr median survival mark can feel triumphant (again, knowing that treatment either works or it doesn't - the patient cannot will the cancer to stop spreading). My struggle lately is not thinking about the present (3.5yrs) as borrowed time. #LifeOfAFourthStager

Teva, Teva Harrison, youre trending in Canada. Your impact on this world and legacy will last long after your physical presence is felt. Thank you for; your validation, the times you spoke for other youngins & all of the work you did for #MBC. My condolences David (P) Leonard.

This is the Tweet I never wanted to send out. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to inform everyone that Katie passed away last Friday night. I'm heartbroken. Keith obittree.com/obituary/ca/on…
