i dont use the word,"hate" very often, but one thing i use it for without a problem:
i hate cancer.
i found humor helped me out tremendously through my personal fight with it.
like this:
goin through chemo, i was in rough shape. walked( if thats what it could be called) into the bathroom to get sick(again). got done, looked at myself in the mirror and thought,"oh, what a lovely shade of green/yellow my skin is. huh!! it makes my teeth look REALLY white!"

lookin for ways to get money to support my gardening "problem", i found out a lung goes for about 50k on the black market.
maybe a damaged one could get 20k.

ya got some prayers from me and pete thedog, lexie!
