7:12 AM – Woke up to my human groaning. She says it’s “chemo pain.” I say, “Drama queen, my breakfast is late.” I stare at her until she feels guilty enough to wobble to the kitchen. #Priorities

7:45 AM – She finally opens the fridge. I supervise. She grabs her meds before my food. Rude. I let out a long, disappointed sigh. Humans need accountability.

8:00 AM – Medicine time. She dumps out 7,000 pills like she’s auditioning for a commercial called “Do You Have Enough Problems Yet?” I sniff them. None are bacon-flavored. Honestly, pharmaceutical industry—do better.

8:20 AM – She does her shot. I position myself in the corner like a small, judgmental nurse. She whispers, “Mojo, this hurts.” I blink slowly. Pain builds character, human. Also, have you considered feeding me first? #SupportDog

9:00 AM – She’s scrolling on her phone, frowning. I jump onto her lap, spin twice, and land like a furry weighted blanket. Accidentally farted. She laughed so hard she snorted. I consider this a medical intervention. #TherapyDog

9:42 AM – She cries a little. I silently press my head into her side. She says, “Thank you, Mojo.” I say nothing. The silent hero always gets the last treat.

10:30 AM – Doorbell rings. I freeze. I don’t move. I don’t bark. I just… judge. If they break in, that’s between them and the furniture. #SecurityVibes

11:03 AM – Nap number one. I dreamt about steak. In my dream, I owned a restaurant called “Mojo’s Meat Palace.” I woke up to a dry bowl. Disrespectful.

1:17 PM – She says she’s “too tired to eat.” Don’t worry, I’m a problem solver. I helped myself to half a sandwich. She said, “MOJO!” I pretended not to hear. Selective hearing is a service dog skill.

2:45 PM – Nap number two. We spoon. I’m always the big spoon because I’m emotionally dominant.

4:00 PM – She tries to fold laundry. I sit directly on the warm pile and make eye contact. I dare her to move me. She doesn’t. Victory is mine.

6:18 PM – Dinner smells. I sit in the middle of the kitchen floor and exude silent judgment until a piece of chicken “accidentally” falls. Manifestation is real, folks.

7:50 PM – She laughs at the TV. I side-eye her. Laughing at boxes on the wall instead of me? Tragic.

9:15 PM – She whispers, “I don’t know what I’d do without you, Mojo.” I squint at her and then roll over so she can rub my belly. Love is a transaction.

10:00 PM – Final tweet: Another day spent supervising, judging, and keeping this human alive. 11/10, would recommend being me. 🐾💤

I’m Izzy

Welcome to mojo and the mess, This isn’t the blog I ever expected to write — but it’s the one I needed.

I’m Izzy, a twenty-something living (and dying) with terminal cancer, navigating the messy, heartbreaking, unexpectedly beautiful in-between. Here, you’ll find raw reflections, real talk, dog snuggles (shoutout to Mojo), and the unfiltered truth about what it’s like to face the end of your life before it really got going.

This space is for the ones who’ve felt forgotten, the ones who don’t know what to say, and the ones who are still holding on. It’s not always pretty, but it’s always honest.

Thanks for being here. You’re part of the mess now — and I mean that in the best way.

Let’s connect
