LYRICS BELOW: Inspired by a Melissa Etheridge interview, I found myself questioning how I might feel, what I might hear in my mind, were I to be told that I have breast cancer. Lyrics:
Doctor please slow down I don't understand, Lets get back to talking about the weather It seems to me, you're saying I m not getting better
I hear a voice inside, screaming, crying, asking why? Praying you are wrong What about my boy and girl? Right now, im their whole damn world What do they do if Im gone?
I intend to fight this You don't know the future So I'm going to write it! Finding all good things to say, wearing my pink ribbon every day. I'll be standing all the way.
Doctor please tell me cause I need to know, what I can do to really face it I can't believe you're saying, you just cant erase this
Hear a voice inside, pleading, someone turn this tide Theres so much more to do Ive never been so mad Lost, confused, or deeply sad don't wanna believe my life is through
CH
Hear the voice inside strong detrmined full of pride There so much left to give no matter what the time I'm going to make the most and I will Show my babies how to live © Rachael Chatoor 2008
As I wrote this song, I really struggled with the feelings I experienced. I wrote the song for everyone, for survivors and for people who have moved on, yet lived strong and well and full of love, life, and hope, while fighting cancer of any kind.
There were many moments, I found myself, crying right out loud, as certain words came to me, and my whole body would be filled with energy when certian lines just sounded right.
I often considered my father's (Ken Waterman) own brave battle with cancer as I wrote this.
My Dad's soul moved on to another place, last Sept 2007. He lived a full and happy two years beyond, the "three months" diagnosis that doctors gave him.
My Dad was the sort of man who was a postitive energy at all times, he never said a negative word to anyone. He believed and LIVED, like he was not going to die.
He continued to work devotedly for the YMCA, he spent his free time coaching youth hockey, and was found to be golfing, whenever he could slip away. He even played a round of golf, just days before entering the hospital, for the final time.
The doctors who tended him, were openly amazed that he was golfing only days prior, & told him so as they looked over his charts with wide eyes, admiration, and disbelief.
I witnessed this myself as we sat in the Emergency room, I was so proud of my Dad, on that day especially.
He was still showing people how to live and how to believe. He still joked with all the doctors and nurses, and made everyone around him, feel good about themselves.
That was his magic, & he refused to stop sharing his positive message.
The words 'standing all the way' in this song, refers to my Dad's last golf game, and his message that no matter what the size of the bump in the road, you can still spend your time believing, and loving the people around you, right now, today.
Love you Dad, thank you for your help with this.
And wishes of love, courage, and strength, go out to my sisters in the world who are living with breast cancer, or any kind of cancer.
I truly love you all, for helping me to heal a hurt and connect with a spirit.

THANKS KavernKitty, for putting this song on your show! You ROCK.
Early draft, of a new song. LYRICS BELOW..
"99 bottles of beer" You think twice, before you call me Then you don't even call at all. All the good advice that surrounds me Sends a warning now That wakes my fears and doubts
Its like 99 bottles of beer on the wall Look at what happens when one bottle falls Sooner or later they're all coming down, and I'm giving up.
Going through the motions, steady on course Not riding round in circles on a Carousel horse Do we even consider the things we are giving up
I feel lonely cold and naked I don't cry when I'm just fine I don't know how I should take this Its such a crying shame That its all about the blame
And like 99 bottles of beer on the wall Anything can happen when one bottle falls Sooner or later they are all crashing down and were giving up
Everything in me is crying out loud Everyone suffers when we all act so proud Do we even consider the things we are giving up?
Message not so clear Why are you not here Tell me where you've gone Is that so damn wrong?
Just think twice before you call me If you even call at all Cause I will suffer through this blindly Find a silver lining hiding beneath the clouds

NO second Chances
Hey girl with your fancy dress Just who are you trying to impress Whats it like to get up everyday Just to make sure your makes-up's all in place Gee its must be a big heavy load Since the whole world cares about your fancy clothes
The young girls who want to be you Think they're gonna live the way you live So go on now be strong now make your choices like we gotta live with them, even if you don't. That front door may look real safe but we all know what's inside that place Its not all just one big dance And sometimes my dear, we get no second chances
Hey girl with your platinum key What do you want history to see You get everything right on your plate Despite all you could do, you chose to play it away Your not the only one out on the road Surely you can afford someone to drive your Rolls
There are young girls who want to be you Think they're gonna live the way you live So be loud now, but be proud now Make your choice like you've got to live with it, even if you dont The front door don't work both ways When you know whats inside the place Life is more than one big dance and sometimes my dear we get no second chances

LYRICS BELOW! this was NEVER meant to be seen by the You Tube community, or anyone, EVER,
LYRICS BELOW! this was NEVER meant to be seen by the You Tube community, or anyone, EVER, because, I am home sick, with a cold, wearing my robe, and singing in the wrong key (just trying things out), but I captured a magic moment between my daughter and I, as I watched her taking her bath.
What happened: I am just finishing a new song, and I frequently tape myself during the practising/writing sessions, to document as I play around with different keys and melodies. Anyway, I captured FAR more than I ever anticipated, it's scrapbook worthy, as you will see. My 4 year old daughter writes a song ON the spot (inspired by my Paris song), about the mermaid doll she was playing with in the bath.
Best song I ever heard in this house. :) Give her 5 stars please! Hey girl with your fancy tail you know, why its really fancy and you know it has red hair and a green tail and it has a crown to wear a flower in her hair and she has purple eyes and she is beautiful and she has a purple bra and her name is Ariel............... Did you like how my head grows and your fancy tail just and look and my and your tail now you try to sing it yourself Hey girl with your fancy tail laying on a rock, for a tail Ursula turned her into a human to see her prince she has purple eyes and red hair and a green tail and her bra and her and red hair and she has a purple bra too and her name is ARIEL!!!! Hey girl with your fancy tail!

My Mom treated me to a session of skin laser treatment. Mom is very cool. She lets me torture her now, because she feels guilty for for my tragic upbringing. Ok, just kidding, I decided to document the event, to show people who may be considering this treatment but who may be on the fence about actually trying it.
So here it is, in real home movie format, to fit your You Tube screen, what you can REALLY expect, when it comes to pain, cost, downtime, and results!
Thanks to the fabulous Dr. Elinda Ho, from the QE Park Medical (and Laser) clinic, in Vancouver BC, located on Cambie St at 25th. you are the coolest doctor I know, and I feel very safe knowing the health of my family (and my skin), is in your hands.
