Kathy from Cake Eater Chronicles was one of the best bloggers in town even before her cancer became her only topic.  Since the very beginning, she’s brought her customary, warped sense of humor – the life of many a MOB part – to the subject.

Her latest post, among many other things, goes through the way people react to women wearing the do-rags and hats in that way that says “I’m in chemo”.

And it’s a learning experience.  For example – I’ve been this guy:

First off you have the I’M NOT LOOKING AT YOU People. Theyr’e not looking at you. No, they’re not. You just thought they were looking at you. They’ll swear on a stack of bibles that they’re not looking at you. You’re wrong. Their pupils are firmly set directly in the middle of their sockets, they’re looking directly ahead, and NO they did not SEE YOU. They’d swear they didn’t. And if they did just for one fraction of a second, well, they didn’t mean to see you. They really didn’t. It was an accident and it will never happen again! EXCEPT THAT THEY JUST DID! AIEEEEEE! Oh, Holy Hell! Their eye slipped over to the corner and…they forced it by sheer will back to center. OHMYGODDIDTHEYNOTICE??? I DON’T WANT TO MAKE THEM FEEL LIKE THEY’RE IN A FREAK SHOW! I CAN’T LOOK! REALLY, I CAN’T. LOOK AT THE GROUND LOOK AT THE GROUND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST LOOK AT THE GROUND!!!!

Yeah, yeah.  I know.  I’ve been working on it.

Her whole series should be required reading.
