"Not Dead Yet!"

Notes from the Cancer Ward

was not my first choice of a title,

but

"Not Dead Yet",

 that great line from the Monty Python Movie, was already taken.  Too bad.  The back page of my Journal from last year was the cartoon page, and had jolts of black humor that included blog names, or good chapter headings, should I get around to writing the cancer memoir. "Not Dead Yet" seemed to strike just the right flippant voice, and of course had to be delivered with just the right british accent. Its only drawback was that you had to be ' of a certain age' to get it --


I also liked Notes from Death Row, but that seemed just too blunt, and was easily mistaken for something else altogether.
