It may sound like an oxymoron but tonight I was having some fun doing homework:). My Gerontology class has an assignment where I have to watch a film or tv show that depicts senior citizens and write a response paper on how they were portrayed and what stereo types they fit or broke.
I was going to watch Something's Gotta I've and talk about May December relationships and December December and May, May relationships. But I couldn't find it on Netflix. So I started looking around and was reminded of the film Second Hand Lions!!! It is such a great movie and I was excited about watching it again!!! I had to rent it off of Amazon but didn't care:). I found myself laughing through the whole thing!! And of course taking notes. There are actually some rather poignant and deep lines in that film if you listen! Now my only concern is keeping my response paper from being too long and from slipping back into my English Major prose!! Lol!
After 15 years of trying to finish my undergrad, I spent the week before finals in and out of the ER. During finals I was diagnosed with Endometrial Cancer. I graduated Magna Cum Laude the next weekend from Western Michigan University. I am now blogging about my experiences of fighting cancer & living life after in hopes of being able to help others.

Feeling Good!
