Happy Cancerversary to me! I mean it! I am who I am today because 2 years ago cancer broke who I was into a thousand pieces. Who I am today is what was rebuilt out of those pieces. And I like who I am today. (But also fuck cancer.)

I think I need to log off Twitter and assess where my ethics and priorities lie in relation to this site. Sending good vibes to my cancer community! <3

@JudsonKimmel1 @EyeVey @ThanksCancer Which is why I think we need a solution that is more complex than a single nationalized healthcare system would likely provide, if we want to maintain high quality of care.

@JudsonKimmel1 @EyeVey @ThanksCancer As a cancer patient and a healthcare provider, I do worry about rationing of care in a single payer systems (I’ve seen some heartbreaking stories here!), and many of us will opt to be cash only if our alternative is to work for an inefficient, intrusive system for half the pay.

My very first block came today from a a 🇫🇷 lady who couldn’t or wouldn’t understand why I thought her “my cancer care was free” tweets to a bunch of mostly 🇺🇸 cancer patients were tone deaf. Like we don’t know how messed up our insurance system is. 🙄 I’ll take it. @ThanksCancer

@JudsonKimmel1 @ThanksCancer I think people really don't get how limited our political power really is, and how variable our influence is depending on where in the US we live. Not to mention how many of us are nevertheless working as hard as we can to make things better (even while having cancer!!).

@QuixoteJen @ThanksCancer Thank you for saying that, Jen - it’s what I was trying to tell her, and she kept saying that we don’t know about single payer. 🙄 She also implied that we should just get it done, like it was a simple lack of effort on our part. 🤦‍♂️

@ThanksCancer If we're defining trauma as being an event or situation, then it 100% is. If we use the technical definition that it is, instead, an emotional reaction to such an event, then that depends on the person. But it's a rare person who would not have such a reaction to cancer!

I do consider cancer trauma because it changed my relationship with my body and took years of recovery. I had someone recently who was offended that I characterized cancer as trauma, which is why I am asking.

Do you consider cancer “trauma”? Why or why not?

It is so exhausting that, every time I find myself in an intellectual or professional situation with strangers, I have to go to great lengths to prove myself in order to not be talked down to.

All of a sudden I'm getting followed by a string of "name+bunchof#s" people and it's making me really nervous.

@saraofswords Yuuup. My biggest hesitation is worrying that they may be patients who haven't posted about it yet, but, now that you say that, it occurs to me that that's not my responsibility to acommodate.

And no offence intended at all if your handle is similar, it's just a tendency for trolls and bots to look that way too.
