I was taken by surprise by that and I really didn't know what to say so I just blinked and said, "Me?" She said something about how I am facing cancer compared to the others she sees. I was beyond humbled and really couldn't say much to her other than to say thanks and I appreciated that very much. Whenever I die, I won't be made a saint, and not just because I am a Lutheran. Maybe part of my strength comes from being bullied and pushed around a lot when I was a child. Cancer is very much like a big nasty bully, too. Now I can fight back, and bullies piss me off to no end. I have had my fill of excrement sammich in this life. Now, if someone or something comes and tells me I have to take a bite, it's going to be a fight.

Your courage is definitely inspiring, as is all of this travel! Keep it up!
