Today I got the news that the illness a member of my family was suffering from was NOT cancer.

Our text message string was full of heartfelt ‘ thank Gods ” and prayer hands and angel wings because this person is a cancer survivor and seriously, she doesn’t need a new form of Cancer deciding to take her to the wall, you know?

I was on board with that sentiment. I thanked God to- all of them.

Would anyone on that string have been surprised had I said that and followed it with little pitch forks and horns and angel wings and prayer hands?

Not in the slightest- so why I made a joke about Baby Jesus instead, I will never know.

All I know is that Baby Jesus is my go to guy when I get caught in these situations and I’m not sure how to respond.

I know.

It’s devilish of me to act that way.

Wasn’t it?
