I hope it goes/went well. Stay healthy, best wishes.

'Hope all goes well with that and your body and spirit can recover as soon as it can afterwards!

Nothing's more important than that - as long as it takes! <3

Oh, and I highly recommend when you're healthy again, to get an HPV-vaccine-series since that can prevent quite a few kinds of cancers that are caused by some of those nasty Herpes-Virus-Group when you get older or are sexually active.

In some countries it's also paid-for by health insurances, some you might need to save for the few hundred bucks for the 2-3 shots on your own (2 shots for healthy folks without pre-/chronic conditions, that impair their immune response, 3 for those who do have such an impairment). But I'd definitely wait until after the cancer treatment since that will definitely impair your immune system, too (chemo and/or radiation).

Hugs and get well as soon as you can - and only listen to those of your fans/followers/friends/family who understand the severity of that. The rest are just a buncha a-holes anyway.

Oh, such a situation is always an awesome "opportunity" to realize who your real friends are and who are just there to share in your happy moments, too.

Those who care, will make time and not pressure you when it takes longer than THEY are "comfortable" with. It's about YOUR comfort ffs now, not theirs ;-P

So, hopefully your surgery will go well and you'll heal just as well - but if there's complications, get help for those, too and don't hide symptoms from the docs just because you're afraid of further trouble. Fear of being an "inconvenience" or some such is the worst "guide" in such a situation - I know *sigh* ^_^

Alrighty...stay as strong as you can as long as you can, but don't feel bad if you can't anymore. A little breakdown every now and then, has often helped people to realize what's really important in Life. And it usually occurs sooner or later anyway. But if you've had one already, you know what I'm saying and can react even more relaxed to anything Life has in store for you and all of us.

Hugs and I know it's a little "edgy" in a not-so-pleasant way always...but I hope your optimism isn't overcompensation, drugs or something like that, but real.

So, no matter what's coming, you're gonna be good eventually - I know, I was already dead once before, so there's nothing to be afraid of eventually. But your creative contributions would certainly be missed if it came to that.

Yet, if the diagnose was made early enough, your chances of recovery should be high enough for us to share in your optimism...so, until you tell otherwise, I choose to assume that.

Now, get your soul-vessel healed and try to stay in it afterwards until your time comes...none of us can say when that is, so let's hope it's still a long while until that moment arrives (as it will for all of us - "Memento Mori").

I've found that contemplating death can help be much more appreciative and thankful for all we have currently in Life...even after trauma and pain/suffering. As long as we're still breathing, there's a chance of things to get better and even opportunities for us to contribute to that.

Swift recovery! Thanks for the heads-up! We will be here waiting for your return.
