Maleficent
December 11, 2013
Man, chemo again! These poor lungs obviously can't help me win anymore. But maybe, just maybe if I hit the jackpot, I can pay off these bills from St. Mary's. Doc said I have to quit smoking. His exact words were, "Cody, those cancer sticks are killing you son..." All I could do was say. "Damn, all those years, I never thought it would be me with lung cancer." Turns out life can get tougher. So I grab my cash, head to the casino, put my money down and say, "1,000 dollars in chips, please."
