I had an appointment today from my great GP about a couple of biopsies that I had on my back and shoulders that were done 2 weeks ago. When my DR does not come in the exam rooms smiling and stating that I am his favorite crazy jew. I worry. I had a right to it seems that I have developed a case of
Skin Cancer!!!!!!! So after only the embarrassing things I have done passed before my eyes I found out that I had the most serious type of this kind of noma. I have Melanoma.
I am no stranger to cancer it took my beautiful wife way before her prime in a very cruel way. I watched her deterorate into what i still can not put into words. Cancer took my Mum quick, so quick that I was not able to say good bye or go to her funeral.
I always thought I would get it. I just thought i would be old and It would be lung cancer, or some kind of cancer you got from drinking and eating fatty food. Not from enjoying the sun.
But I will not let this stop me...maybe I will not be sitting on the beach in Mexico. What I will do is continue to live, love and approach life with my known dark humor.....So Screw You Cancer

"The Colapse Of A Moose's Health" " A Year in Review"
As I slowly recover from the onslaught of Pork Ebola I have to reflect on what a My body has been through this year. Now I am not a stranger to abusing my body, i have been known to drink ( on my 37th B-Day I drank my age in beers) I have in my past visited some recreational Pharmaceuticals only for editorial reasons I promise. Smoked Cigarettes and placed my body in very sketchy situations both for a pay check, and for my own and others amusement. But this has been the health-care year from hell. Here is the breakdown on my physical breakdown;
October 2008 : My L-4.L-5 lumbar disks decided to move. this move was without a months notice and in breaking a life long lease.
January 2009: Happy New Year not for my Kidneys they gave me a rocky party favor for the new year and I peed red in celebration for weeks
March 2009: Some kind of Flu, not of the pork variety but a nasty fucker non the less
May 2009: My friend Malaria paid me another visit I was infected a couple of years ago and every now and then the Dark Continent makes me shiver like Kate Gosslin at a Ed Hardy Fashion Show.
July 2009: While filming on a beach in Cuba I feel into a hole and tore my ACL in my right knee no amount of cigars or moitos or Che tee shirts relieved my pain.
July 2009: ACL Surgery followed by a boat trip to Mexico to recover and visit every donkey show i could find
September 2009: I lost my Gall Stone virginity, complete with crying, blood in my stool, and a 911 call not unlike a weekend at most Catholic Boys schools.
October 2009: Swine Flu! Pork Ebola, Porcine Plague, Trotter Typhoid... Pure oinky hell
October 2009: Return of my spine defection. I now will need back surgery, yeah for me
On a positive note I lost 65lbs this year, have not had a bipolar experience requiring locked doors and I am still alive. Also if i was still living in the U.S. this medical year would have bankrupted me and I would be living in box shouting at squirrels. I Love Canada. Look out 2010
