I shaved my head I put on robes I sleep in the corner of a cabin sixty-five hundred feet up a mountain It's dismal here The only thing I don't need is a comb
March 2008 (confession: I love shaving my head. It makes me feel in control. What I hate is hair thinning. They should add hair "fertilizer" to our designed drugs)
Summer 2008 (in this video I was having fun with one of my scans, the music is by Brazilians, Seu Jorge and Ana Carolina).

1I needed a "garage" for my cancer stuff. I forget easily and sometimes I want to remember.
2For my friends. Aware of how they worry about me and of how terrible I am when it comes to staying in touch, I want them to know that I still feel them lifting me up.
3In case a net-surfer with a sarcoma, particularly a retroperitoneal liposarcoma, finds me, I hope that he/she doesn't feel so alone. And knows that, no matter what, everything will be alright.

Ring the bells that still can ring, Forget your perfect offering, There's a crack in everything, That's how the light gets in.
Toca os sinos que ainda podem, esquece a dádiva perfeita, existe uma brecha em tudo, é assim que a luz penetra.
