rebeccmeisterI am going to post briefly here, about some news of note in my life, for context. This past week, my dad was diagnosed with colon cancer. We don't know what stage, yet. One of the harder parts of the process to deal with, the whole not-knowing. Surgery to remove a section of his colon on Tuesday, CT scan results soon. I have to wonder, does it feel strange to have a lot of people inquiring into the detail of one's bowel conditions? Probably. I, for one, am going to stick with an emphasis on Poop Strong. I know we could all cry into our teacups, and maybe that will happen at some point. But for now, Poop Strong.
What I DO know is that it makes me remember how important my father has been in my life, and how much I love him.
Then cue all of that thinking about one's mortality and such. Plus some thinking about how amazing the human body is, in its capacity to do so many different things, from thinking to building things to riding a bicycle incredible long distances.
Plus, I would say my dad is at least partial inspiration for the Eat-Poop-Ride concept.
