Baldies' Blog began originally in the UK by a 26 year old journalist with a blood cancer on a mission to inform the world about bone marrow donation.

He has since died, and I took on the cause of making cancer care more transparent for everybody.

Cancer is a disease that will touch everybody through diagnosis or affiliation: 1 in 2 men will be diagnosed and 1 in 3 woman will hear those words, "You Have Cancer."

I invite you to read how I feel along my journey and
how I am continuing to live a full life alongside my Hodgkin's lymphoma, with me controlling my cancer, not my cancer controlling me.

I hope that "Baldies' Blog" will prepare you to handle whatever life sends you, but especially if it's the message, "You Have Cancer."

Prescribe Porn

I think it is amusing and hysterical some of the pointers I get from other patients.
I heard a new method in pain management today.
This one may be my favorite so far.
I was told to get porn.
Apparently, pleasure increases endorphins.
It could be sedating and stimulating.
I really wanted to ask them what exactly they would recommend.
Maybe, Naughty Nurses? I’m all about outfits.
Why is there no “Hottie Naughty Doctors?”
Was this what my sister meant when she told me I should drink “Tahitian noni juice?”
I did think that sounded a little dirty.
I don’t think this is going to be my new preferred pain management method.
I will file it away under my “things to do if all else fails” list.
I’m pretty confidant I’d be able to find someone to help me with this.
So here’s another tidbit from the minds of the desperate.
Thanks. I love the suggestions. Keep them coming.
