The land of confusion. Cancer really is that land. It's like the world caved in that fateful day of diagnosis, and I haven't been able to understand the world since. Thank you for this wonderful post; I can see why it was popular when it first ran.Beth Gainerhttp://www.bethgainer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757387388608137930.post-57741898721487073792013-11-01T00:43:33.019-04:002013-11-01T00:43:33.019-04:00dear Renn, so sorry for being late in responding. ...dear Renn, so sorry for being late in responding. I started my internal radiation, still recovering from 5 weeks of external radiation, and when I read this post I was definitely in the Land of Confusion - could NOT coax a single cogent thought out of my hassled and harried brain. the wonderful map done by Deer Prudence is a perfect guide to many of the places I have been, and to those I've not yet encountered. do I dare to hope that I will not have fallen out of range, nor land somewhere else? oh, yeah, I forgot - been there, done that. one can see why the title of the map is so aptly named: "THE LAND OF CONFUSION"! this is a great post and, indeed, a perfect metaphor for the bucket of fuckedness named CANCER. glad you rolled it out again. <br /><br />much love and light, xoxoxox<br /><br />karentccomments2013https://www.blogger.com/profile/00446394638074551345noreply@blogger.com
