Tanning Doesn't Cure Cancer but Grandma's Home-Grown Peaches Might

I would like to personally thank everyone who approached me a few weeks ago and said, "Wow, you look awful.  Are you feeling alright?" To be honest at the time I wanted to punch you in the mouth, but in the end it was your cruel honesty that helped coax me into a doctor's office (ask my Mom, this is no easy feat).

What does this have to do with tanning you may ask?  Well, I was feeling pretty self conscious about all the "you look really pale" comments, so I visited the tanning salon to try to fix the problem.

Twelve minutes in the super-ruva-tano-magic and slicked up with tanning lotion - I still looked like the albino in that weird Powder movie that came out in the 90s. The lady at the salon said it could take a couple days for the tan to sink in but when I started peeling white off white I knew the endeavor was a failure.

Bottom line, tanning doesn't cure anemia, or cancer for that matter, in fact, I'm pretty sure causes it.

On the flip side, I had my first real alone time in my hospital room on Sunday morning.  I sneaked down the hall, pulled out the jar of Grandma Joyce's home grown peaches I'd been saving in the fridge, and tiptoed back to my room for some quiet indulgence.

I didn't feel much better after 12 minutes of tanning, but I swear I felt more than back to normal after 12 minutes of Grandma's peaches.
