Yeah, he touched a nerve for a lot of cancer patients. An acquaintance at chorus last night was having a crazy time trying to keep up with all the texts from her editor. Turns out her online piece on the subject was re-tweeted by a couple of celebs yesterday and thus increased traffic to the magazine’s website exponentially. She and I originally bonded over all the petty iniquities of cancer: stuff like how your hair grows back completely differently and you don’t know what to do with it. There are quite a few of us in the chorus, and we all have exactly the same reaction to the Kellers’ narcissistic appropriation of the subject. So sure, Mr. & Mrs. Bully, be proud of the fact you got a rise out of a stage 4 cancer patient. Aren’t you impressive?
