My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Thursday, August 4, 2011. See this cute baby, cancer? She's laughing at you. You came into my life four years ago, determined to destroy me. But through some twists and turns and lots of moxie, I kicked yo ass. We are all laughing. Last year on this day, Anton proposed to me in Maui, and birds came to bless us on the balcony (no joke! I felt like Cinderella. We got married in April, and three weeks after that, baby Moxie was born. Our little miracle. Grandview M...

Brandy's Cancer Bash: For my friends
http://cancerfuckingsucks.blogspot.com/2011/09/for-my-friends.html
My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Monday, September 19, 2011. This morning, I realized that I’ve begun to recognize the signs. There’s the fight, the expression of it, the spirit. Then submission to treatment, whatever works—how ever one’s body is ravaged and. Emilee, age 32. Ann-Marie, age 25. Caio, age 23. Earl, age 23. Will it be me? Will it be someone I love?

Brandy's Cancer Bash: January 2011
http://cancerfuckingsucks.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. Is Breast Cancer Caused by a Virus? Anton and I saw these short films on YouTube a couple months ago, and they blew us away. To think of the possibility that breast cancer could be caused by a virus (like HPV causes cervical cancer), and that if so, there could be a vaccination and a cure! If you're having problems viewing the videos here, just click on the YouTube icon on the bottom righthand corner of each frame.). It's soon going to...

Brandy's Cancer Bash: Hard to Breathe
http://cancerfuckingsucks.blogspot.com/2014/03/hard-to-breathe.html
My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Tuesday, March 25, 2014. On March 7th, right before I called my parents, I thought, "This is the last moment of normal." Then I dialled their number and prepared myself for the worst, hoping that I could be wrong. Now as I look back, I know how grossly understated my gut feeling was. So now I've been on both sides, neither of which are good. I wish I could say what tomorrow will be like, but I won't really know until we all wake up. Time to sleep. I grew up in r...

My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Sunday, February 14, 2010. Our Little Tiger (definitely not Tiger Woods though). As for the "what if's".my answer to those devils is that no matter what happens, Baby Worrall Soriano is going to have two parents and two siblings who will always love him/her, and an army of aunties and uncles to guide him/her through this crazy world. We are rich in friends. Happy Year of the Tiger! Saturday, February 13, 2010. Eye of the Tiger. However, while in PA, I discovered...

Brandy's Cancer Bash: 5 years later...
http://cancerfuckingsucks.blogspot.com/2012/07/5-years-later.html
My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Friday, July 13, 2012. Still, the writing was nonexistent, while life kept happening. But the more that happened, good and bad, the more I kept seeing my life paralleling my parents'. And when I was ready to truly heal from all the devastation, the writing started up again. The result is my book, What Doesn't Kill Me. So I'm here in Toronto, waiting to go back to Vancouver, where upon arrival, I have to go to the emergency room! It's too fucking fitting, is what.

My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Wednesday, August 4, 2010. Was it my fault? As I sit here on our first morning in Maui, with Anton still sleeping, I am full of reflection about how I got here. And to me, it all comes down to the fact that there is nothing else like this moment. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Young Adult Cancer Canada.

Brandy's Cancer Bash: Just Another Cancer Story
http://cancerfuckingsucks.blogspot.com/2014/10/just-another-cancer-story.html
My journey as a shitdisturber with cancer. Tuesday, October 28, 2014. Just Another Cancer Story. Every morning I open up my journal to write. I use a laminated copy of Dad’s obituary as a bookmark. The funeral home gave us a few of them after the service. I’ve scanned it so I can make more bookmarks when this one becomes too worn at the edges. There is so much I regret about Dad’s passing—why didn’t I make him get those tests and scans done earlier? Why didn’t I take him back to the hospital sooner?
