What an autumn. But it always is for me...fall always seems like such a terrible transition between good and bad, but since bad always gets worse, I just assume its the seasons fucking with me and before I know it, it's the New Year and things are moving back uphill. But regardless, I found out I have HPV, and "pre-cancer"... if I don't quit smoking cigarettes, I'm pretty much guaranteed to have full blown cervical cancer in 5 years.

That sounds awfully speculative on the part of any doctor to tell you that "in five years you'll have cancer"; it sounds more like they're trying to scare you into quitting. And cervical pre-cancer, or cancer in the early stages, is one of the most highly treatable diseases, with a successful recovery rate in the upper 90s percentile. I think whoever told you that did you a great disservice and was likely prompted more by a self-righteous abhorrence of the evils of tobacco than by any real medical findings. I mean, how many oncologists can predict the course of a cancer over a five year period, even for a patient who actually, demonstrably has cancer? I think it's absurd and really outrageous.

..............We haven't talked in so long. I haven't really heard anything from you for a long time other than Facebook "stalking" you.

You better quit it with the damn cigs. I swear to god I almost fucking cried when I read this.

I hope you get better. Call me.

thank you so much for your concern....it means a lot, believe it.

I'm working on it, but its such a catch-22, with all the stress every 5 minutes all i want is a cigarette - and i don't have the money to smoke joints all day :P
