Books I have known and loved And was lucky enough to get paid to read them. I will be adding to this from time to time.

Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida. After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons.

cancerfacts.com Accelerated doses better for head and neck cancer
. . .
Tomorrow morning I meet with my radiologist. She will go over with me what she advises I do next. MRI?, CTscan?, X-RAYS?, Bloodtests?, One or more of those anyway to determine, I suppose, if the cancer has been put into remission. What I plan to tell her is "no more treatments, no more tests". Though I am feeling pretty good at present, I have just emerged from a summer of hell, both physically and emotionally. The emotional dimension I acknowledge resposibility for (though that doesn't diminish the pain one iota). The physical distress is beyond my responsibility, except you could argue I could have led a more healthy lifestyle. But that's water under the bridge. Disease strikes people of all manner of lifestyles, so-called healthy and not My Dad had the same cancer I have, he just got it at a later age. Of course maybe my radiologist will scare the bejesus out of me and I will begrudgingly go along with the program. The bejesus has already been scared out of me though. As for me: "I'm just looking for a lover but I haven't found her yet. She'll be nothing like I pictured her to be." (Young) Sorry, my mind started to wander for a minute. There are over 4 billion of us on this planet and it still gets lonely.
