Your cancer tried to kill you, your parent, or your gen x/millennial child?
My appendix tried to kill me (a xennial) and was removed as a result (and thus it shouldn't be able to give me cancer anymore).
Also a xennial, And my appendix tried to kill me at age 9, on Mother's Day. My mom thought I was faking to get out of spending the day with her.
I believe you missed all the shots you took there, bud.
There's still one option left lol.
They killed the cancer?
Lol lots of love, Jeffrey:)
Edit: As a teacher, I relate to this so hard lol
