Welcome to the club, Sheryl

Wah wahhh...  My friend Karrie sent me a link to an article today, which talks about Sheryl Crow and her new brain tumor.  Yup, another member of my VIP club has arrived.  She disclosed in an interview for the first time that she discovered that she has a benign brain tumor.  Oh, and let's not forget she's already a breast cancer survivor.  It sounds like the tumor shouldn't cause her too much trouble, and she seems like she's one tough lady, so I'm optimistic that she'll be fine and stay healthy.  It's sad though.  Finding out about people with brain tumors makes me feel a little less alone in this, but it's an awful thing to have happen to someone and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Sheryl and her ex Lance Armstrong, both kickass brain tumor dominators

So now she joins my list of all stars, including Kathi Goertzen (whose story I've followed for a long time, and was in my sorority at Wazzu), Mary Tyler Moore (had surgery right when I did), Ryan Leaf (had surgery right when I did, and fellow Coug), Jerome Harrison (fellow Coug, recently diagnosed during an NFL physical), Lance Armstrong (the ultimate tumor and cancer dominator, whose book helped me get ready for this adventure), and my real-life friends Jess, Krystal, and Sara.  It's TOO MANY.  How wonderful would it be if we could say, "We've reached capacity in the brain tumor club.  No more people can be admitted.  No more brain tumors!"  I know that's cheesy, but how wonderful would that be, truly?!?  Stinking brain tumors!
