I love birthdays.
But, if you’ve followed me over the years, you know my birthday is sort of cursed. This year, on paper, seems to be no different. I’m sick and exhausted from chemotherapy. My bones ache from daily white blood cell booster shots. My eyebrows are falling out.
HOWEVER.
I got this a couple of days ago:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!! It’s time to $&^#%@*! CELEBRATE!
THE CANCER IS GONE!!!
You guys know how much I love parties, right?? Well, I can’t be around crowds, so I need you to celebrate for me!
Here is what I want for my birthday… I want you to CELEBRATE today. Even though I can’t physically be present, I still want to have the biggest birthday party EVER! Please send me pictures of your celebrations, your toasts, and general frivolity today!!! #TeamEl
