I’m an artist living in San Francisco, fighting cancer for the second time, looking for friends to pass the time pleasantly with while I’m doing chemo… I’ve been doing it for about a year and guessing I have about a year more to do (with any luck)… it isn’t so easy to go through but I feel like I’m going to make it. Say hi, I’m looking for friendly chats about the 9ers, the Warriors, art, music, travel, or more personal subjects.
