FFF Fest gave me cancer!
but i still love it. i don't think i'll be able to make it out this year, which sucks because at the end of the fest last year i decided i was coming this year. right now i'm too weak to stand and walk and drink for hours on end. i really noticed the first symptom the sunday morning of FFF Fest last year. i got up of my friend's living room floor and noticed my chest was itchy. i figured a bug bit me (he owns a dog). i stole a shower and we were on our way to FFF sunday. the rash grew and never went away. months later i cant breath very well and doctors tell me the rash is my body fighting cancer. turns out i have pancreatic cancer. so. i'm not working right now so i cant afford tickets when FUN1 happens. the only way i might go is if i guess the right bands and win tickets. or if my body wants to be nice and get better so's i can get my job back. but i haven't been very nice to it, so i don't think that's gonna happen.

thanks for your hope of getting better. it may be workin'. saw the oncologist today and he says i'm getting better and i may hit remission in 6 months. i think too late for fff fest but not too late for everything after. here's to hope and modern medicine. thanks again.
