Why I can’t always wear a mask

I have metastatic lung cancer.

I was diagnosed in May, thanks to a lemon-sized brain tumor that immobilized my right leg. When they did a scan on me they also discovered the cancer in my lungs as well as a spot in my liver.

Thanks to surgery, the brain tumor is gone and I’m walking again.
