This story about the day after my late wife's cancer diagnosis was published recently in The Memoirist on Medium.
It has taken me a long time to gain the confidence to submit stories to publications.

Remember kids, when you mix strains of weed, even RSO, you don't know what results you're going to get. It may be a great trip, or a bad trip.
Don't ask me how I know. 😬

Did you know that the #cancer #treatment I got during the #pandemic blasted my mind open? It did!
My cancer started a little prior to the pandemic. After my treatment I reasserted my #pansexuality and desire for #polyamory.
Thanks to @debharman for the constructive feedback and publishing my piece.

When I was a young adult, my mum gave me a gift which I opened in front of other people.
I could never have guessed what it would be.
It was so embarrassing!
