Cambria, my absolute best best best friend in the whole world, has cancer :[.

I just found out about 20 minutes ago so i don't really know very much. She had an odd growth on her lower lip and went in to the doctor and was called with the results today. You know, i know that lower lip skin cancer is very treatable, even curable in most cases, but it just kinda freaked me out.

My poor little Cambria is just all shocked and weepy. I know she'll be ok, but it just really made me think about how much i absolutely love this girl to pieces. She's just the nicest person in the whole world and she means everything to me. Seriously everyone on the forum needs to meet this girl someday because you'd all just aboslutely LOVE her. She's extremely friendly, has a great sense of humour, and has the BEST LAUGH EVER. She just loses it like ALL the time and like falls over from laughing. Frankly, hanging out with Cambria is everyone's top 3 favorite hobbies.

One of my favorite memories of Cambria is when she came to visit me in Kansas City one summer and we went to the nearby water park. We were in the wave pool and Cambria said something funny and just started to laugh like crazy. Of course, since Cambria has the best laugh in the world, I start laughing like crazy too. However, we were at the 12 foot end where the high waves start so we basically start inhaling alot of water and sputtering and choking. However, this makes us laugh even MORE. At this point, the lifeguard notices us and starts blowing the whistle at us because we're basically nearing the point of drowning from laughter. Since we were the oldest people in the pool by like 8 years, all the 8-13 year old children start pointing and staring at us as we are being disciplined by the life guard. Again, however, this makes us both laugh even more to the point where we actually get KICKED from the wave pool for safety reasons and we proceed to get out of the pool and laugh until we cry for like 20 minutes.

I haven't gotten to see Cambria in 8 months because she went to study abroad in England, but we still talk like 5-6 times a week. Every 6 weeks or so i'll get some really awesome surprise postcard from her with a chicken on it (anyone remember my earlier blog post about chickens?? well it was Cambria who got me into chickens!!). It's just SOOO SWEET that we still talk SO much but she still manages to do cute surprise things like send me postcards. SHE EVEN GOT ME A STUFFED BUNNY FOR MY BIRTHDAY!!!

Here's a picture of me and Cambria the night before she left for England 8 months ago:


She's coming to visit me tomorrow (super yaay!!) and i'm really excited, but I really hope this cancer thing is totally tame and goes away w/o trouble. I love love love love love Cambria to pieces and really want her to be ok and, most importantly, happy as can be. Someone as kind, fun, giggly, and loving as Cambria deserves to be happy all the time.

Keep her in your thoughts for me please
