Nat checks in . . . .
"Howdy y’all. I wanted to give an update bout my fight. Last week my scans gave me some bad luck news. I’m going off chemo and begin 15 treatments of radiation next week. Sarcoma is like kudzu, unrelenting & good at creeping in. You can’t be caught lackin. For a second i’s spiralin back to when I first got laid low. Wonderin again if I’m rehearsin my last days. But even though life can be a cool deck of cards, I still say you gotta play the hand. With cancer, and most of life, you ask for a lot, and take what you can get. I said when I first got sick that I live by my own terms. Sometimes I find it a difficult realization that while I’m fightin for every atom of me, others want to leave this barnburning world. But I get it. Just last week I been there. My loved ones have had to hide my pistol, too, friends. At one point I couldn’t tell myself from my own shadow. I too have woke up lost in the evening of my future, unable to tell the difference between a sunset and a sunrise. But today, I woke up rememberin death ain’t took me this time, he just winked at me again. All I know is I ain’t gon nowhere. I’ma keep course, and keeping fighting like hell. If the other shoe is bound to fall, it’ll get to fallin. This is a setback, not a throwback. This ain’t going backward, this is falling forward. If you like me, out the torrents of summer a cool autumn breeze can carry you thru months of bad rain.I get asked all the time what y’all can do for me. Well, stream and listen to my music, buy a record, anyway you feel is worth throwing some pennies in the tip jar, tell your folks bout what I’m facing, and seize your day. My brother Jason Momoa said it best: I’ll take all the love I can get right now."
