In memory of family and friends who have lost the battle with cancer; and in support of the ones who continue to conquer it! Post this on your LJ if you know someone who has or had cancer. 93% won't copy and paste this. Will you?


I find things all the time. A penny on the sidewalk. Lost pets. Stuffed animals that my kids have lost. Barbie shoes and lego bits. Moldy apple cores that my kids have hidden under the couch. I find stuff at my job all the time--mostly old shopping lists and mittens.

Today I found a business card for a hematologist. One who worked in a pediatric oncology unit. There's only two reasons for a person to be carrying a card like that. 1: They are the good doctor. And 2: Their child probably has cancer.

Since I found it in the ladies room and the doctor listed was male, I think it's safe to assume it was the latter rather than the former.

I think this is the saddest thing I've ever found.


ETA: On a 'hell, life is funny' note

Jillian, who is five, came up to me and said "I like Sho best because he has a cool name. But I like Matsujun's hair a lot" and then wandered away again.
