The Alien inside

Everyone who has seen the movie "alien" can always remember the scene where the monster baby bursts out of the man's abdomen and chest, shrieking. That is rather what cancer feels like to me. An alien inside, growing, taking over my body, and something I cannot control. Instead, cancer is trying to return, tamoxifen not working, and back on a new form of treatment next week. Avastin and Doxil here we go. Lovely.
