something that's always in the back of mind as it relates to cancer is how many different types of crabs there are, and for every crab, there's a different environment and temperament. for every crab, there is a different need. so often associated with the mother, the sign of cancer, i feel, expands to whichever parent takes on the role of nurturing and attuning to the child(ren).

cancer is all about our primal needs, our instinctual drive to connect emotionally and body-to-body. biologically, we connect to the one that grew us in their body and birthed us into this world, our nervous systems interconnected and linked together, mitochondrial DNA passed on to create an undeniable trace of coded heritage. with cancer, it's hard to deny biological necessity. it's hard to mistake the craving we all have for a body that feels safe and familiar, whether our own or someone else. cancer reminds us that though we may be singular organisms, we’re wired to connect. we’re meant to feel and be close. we’re meant to respond and be responded to.
