As you read these words, as we speed through this awful city with its anger and hate and adorable artificial gods, we have gone over the edge of complete and total madness, chaos, murder, anarchy and raging insanity. And that's not a good thing. Here's an example I would have written about last Friday except I needed to calm down lest I take up the call for an end to Lily Ashby's life. Were it possible, I'd kill the little worm myself. Step on her bald head, I would, until it went crunch much like the sound stepping on a flying cockroach makes. For Lily to say she was given cancer as a "gift" made my blood boil. To say that having cancer brought her and her criminal husband back together was a slap in the face of cancer patients the world over.

Not a single person with cancer at this very moment, or those who have survived the deadly disease would ever in their most Chemotherapy toxic drug stupor say cancer is a gift. For thousands in this country who are diagnosed with cancer every year, for the thousands who love those diagnosed, it is a death sentence. The pain and despair and bank account-draining and home-losing and grief do not bring people together in the moronic sense that only dip shits like Lily and Cane Ashby could spew forth from their ignorant lips.

Nobody in their right mind would, in a house of God, say that the dead would like where they are buried. Nobody wants to be dead and for damn sure don't care where they're buried because - drum roll please - they're dead! It doesn't matter where their body is because the body is of no further use to anyone. It is, or will soon be, a pile of bones. And for Cane to say all he needs is Lily's love would make the Beatles cringe. No, that's not all he should need. If Cane knew what true love is he'd need Lily's body back in its healthy state of being. That cancer has invaded Lily's body means it's there for keeps. Cancer doesn't just go away. It lingers. It waits to strike again. All the praying and lighting of candles did not save my Gail. She was taken away by a laughing horror which returned in the form of grief to take me too.

That's why when Jack Abbott said that Sharon Collin's knows grief better than anyone else my skin crawled. Sorry Jack, Sharon don't know shit about grief. For all the death around her, including Jack who said his goal in life is to seek revenge against Victor Newman, Sharon has never grieved. Sure, she's put on an act for a minute or two, but then she goes back to her usual sorry-ass slutish self which will soon become apparent when she screws Adam Wilson. Who wants to bet this won't happen?

Who wants to bet the Lily will survive her deadly disease and like Ashley Newman never know cancer again even as it rots what's left of their pea brains? Who among us, knowing the devastation cancer causes, hasn't wondered how Lily and Cane are paying the medical bills? Why are they not seen agonizing over the stack, yes stack, of bills from doctors and hospitals and labs and you name it? How does either of these unemployed freaks pay for their health insurance as right now we are cutting back on food because the premium for our health insurance is going up - again. Okay, so we're supposed to believe Cane works as a bartender, but when's the last time he was seen at Mac Browning's bar? When's the last time Mac was seen at the bar?
