Commando - it's not just about the underwear

Commando

a word that conjures a lot of images

an undercover warrior

a special forces operative

being ready for action

It can also mean

for men (maybe women too?)

no underwear

if you go commando

you aren't wearing underwear

just you, your pants, and freedom

But today

I want to introduce a new concept.

Cancer-Commando

What is that?

is it a feeling?

a battle term?

a desire for freedom?

some stupid burt-ism?

No,

my new phrase (yes, I invented it)

mean's going sans treatment while be an active patient

I am going Cancer Commando.

Two cancers

yet,

I am not in treatment (at least western treatments)

I am not getting shots

I am not getting radiation

I am not doing chemo

nothing. I am doing nothing

I am going Cancer Commando

Why do I come up with crap like this?

Is it because of my eccentricities?

My IDGAF attitude?

Is it because I have nothing better to do?

Or does it just pop up into my head.

When I can answer that question, I will be impressed with myself.

Does it scare me, going Cancer Commando?

Not really.

You know me, 'just be".

I am feeling good (mostly)

taking care of myself

with all of my integrative treatments (diet, acupuncture, meditation, writing, exercise, outdoor time, hiking, planning fun things, etc)

so the commando part?

I got this.

But, I like the term,

and that made me happy.
