The sun is out, my hair is washed, and I’m feeling almost human today! If my life was the original Broadway production of Rent, Idina Menzel would be leaning over me and cooing, “Her fever’s breaking.” Then again, by that logic I’d also be a HIV positive stripper with a hankering for Heroin so perhaps we [...]

Just to recap, it all started with a relaxing dinner where I sucked royally at preparing a family friend for his first round of chemo. Then I held my friend’s hand as she looked at her sweet dog’s [...]
