Hi everyone. I so appreciate the very generous sentiment from some of you wanting to donate your ticket money. I feel so lucky to have such compassionate people following my art, but please go grab your refunds, as the money will not go to me. If you’d like to support my art you can sign up for my newsletter or buy a book or simply share my writing with someone who may benefit from reading it. Ya’ll mean the world to me. ❤ Thank you for being here.
Andrea, I bought tickets to your show in Madison WI for my 30th birthday celebration-but I can’t imagine a better gift than you focusing on your healing and taking care of your body. I love you more than you could or will ever know. Sending you all the nourishing, reparative energy possible. ❤️
I got a ticket for Santa Fe for my 35th, and I definitely agree with you. May we both have happy birthdays as we send happy thoughts to Andrea. ❤️
Andrea, you are the most beautiful soul I've ever encountered. Sending you love. I am amazed by your grace. My heart hurts so much hearing this news. For those of us who would like to donate their ticket refunds, do you have a cause to recommend (in addition to supporting your art/newsletter and the art of your tourmates)? I'd like to support a cause close to your heart.
So so much love to you in all the grief and in all the hope and everywhere in between. “This planet needs nothing more than our open hearts right now.” So freaking important. We are with you ❤️
We are blessed to have you on this earth sharing life with all of us. Heal and learn and we’ll all be together soon enough!
Thank you for taking a moment to have this chat with us ❤️ Sending all my love and healing vibes your way.
Andrea you are well and widely loved!!! We are all sending you healing vibes. Please hang in there. Xoxoxo
Sending so much love your way. I am so sad about this diagnosis, but I hope to live my life in a way that honors you and lends strength in a ripple effect that makes it's way toward you. Was looking forward to seeing you in Madison, but will continue to stay connected through your newsletter.
Honestly, I don't know your work. I was going to attend your show in NC with a friend who's already in love with you. She sent me the link to this video, and it's easy to see why she thinks you are amazing. This video stole my heart, made me cry, and gave me hope all in one gulp. I wish you peace, Andrea. I wish you a continued abundance of goodness. I wish you healing. I am so, so grateful for your words in this short clip. Thank you.
Love and so much more love on your way. Thank you for sharing. I'm just moved and inspired.
Oh. My. Gosh. Andreas words inspire me and also leave me speechless. I’m so grateful for their presence and outlook and ability to make ME feel so held even through their grief. This is astonishing. Wishing Andrea so much love through their journey.
💜💜💜 Lots of love and wishes for rest and healing for you. Your poetry has meant so much to me and helped me through a lot in my own life, so just wanted to say thank you for everything you do and whenever you're able to do a tour again, I'll be there.
You're amazing. Supporting you now & always.
Love you too ❤️ thank you for sharing this with us, I wish you all the best, you beautiful human being
For all the love and wisdom you add to this world, may you be blessed with complete healing and continuing love from everyone blessed to know you through your words, teachings, and personal relationships.
Sending love so fervently! 🙏🏻💗
Oh Andrea. My heart is with you
Love and love and love and love and love into infinity.
Thank you for teaching us all how to live. Holding you close and sending all energies in the universe for speedy healing.
Love and peace to you beautiful one. Blessed be.
In leu of seeing you in Boston I’m still grateful to have your book and words. I’ll be thinking of you as you face cancer a second time. You’re amazing ❤️❤️❤️

We love you so, so much and are here for you. I would show up to a benefit show for you and if none are planned, I will hold a reading of your beautiful words in my backyard to celebrate you, your artistry and your spirit. You are a gift and a treasure. I wish I could channel your talent to describe how much you mean to so many of us.
Andrea, wishing you all the love, strength and courage to fight this battle (again). You've got this! You are a warrior. Please don't ever lose sight of your fierce and loving spirirt. Ugggggh, FUCK cancer.

I love your laughing and I understand the irony of hearing that through the words you had to share. But that symbol, laughter through very difficult times, is exactly why you are an inspiration. Thank you honestly for being so effing fantastic. We’re rooting for you!! ❤️☀️🥰🏞
I love you and was lucky enough to get to see you in Portland a few years ago. Your writing inspired me so much and I am grateful to have learned from you. Thank you so much.
Sending very soft love in your direction.
You are a blessing. Whatever comes, my whole heart is rooting for you. ❤️

You are so loved, and your love and joy in wanting to be with us is such a gift. It is a gift that has no expiration date, and will keep until the time when we can make it happen, but we all want you to care for your most precious self - that is a message that you are so good to keep reminding so many of us.
Thank you for reminding us of what matters. Wishing you healing and your team prosperity
Sending you so much love! We're rooting for you!
My heart is with you. Heal well and I’ll see you on the next tour 💓
“go love your life” … put me in tears. rooting for you Andrea. thank you.
I could leave a million comments on this video, it's wonderful for so many reasons. Thank you for being so real, and please know we're all grateful for you and your art. I hope the surgery goes well ♥️
Big love and light. And YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. We are of course sad not to see you, but your health is more important to us.
Andrea, I am so sorry you had to cancel your tour and heart full that you are getting the care you need and taking time to continue your healing journey.
You clearly have is so much compassion and love for your friends who signed on to Co-create the tour with you and I truly hope y'all get the chance to co-create magic together in some form in the future. I felt so many warm fuzzies listening to you talk about what Chris Pureka has meant to you! I went solo to a Chris Pureka show after work one night at John M. Green Hall at Smith 2008 or 2009? I knew nothing about you, was anticipating an opening set from a singer/ songwriter/folky act. I was running a little late, sat down, and proceeded to have the wind knocked out of me by your powerful poetry. I was totally floored and wept through the entire rest of your set. That was one of those moments where I felt like I got kicked in the chest by art in the best and most beautiful way and all my emotions spilled out. I have been enjoying your unparalleled delivery of those heart opening experiences any chance I've gotten for the last 14 years or so.
Thank you for being you and sharing so much of yourself. I did not expect to be smiling and heart full of joy for your joy and easy laughter and love of life at the end of this video. I'm glad that you're feeling and living your whole beautiful messy hard awe-filled life to the fullest and I will be sending so much joyful loving kindness and many healing thoughts your way. ♥️
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sending you ALL OF THE LOVE, lifting you up to the STARS, you ARE made of STARS. You are a beacon of love and light in this world and your raw sharing inspires the world. We love you so, you are not alone. Thank you for sharing your intimate health information with us. Sending you prayers for healing and LIGHT to shine on your body, spirit, and heart. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. I am here for you, please reach out if you want or need anything at all. I'm going to buy a copy of your book right now (which I'd meant to to do but forgotten) -- fyi the link to the book provided above keeps getting flagged by my browser to be suspicious for some reason, so I found it on another site. LOTS OF LOVE, Andrea!!!!! xoxoxoxoxox
Thank you for everything that you've done, you beautiful, wonderful soul!
sending love back to you. holding you in my heart 🦋
So much love and light to you…thank you for continuing to inspire, support, and encourage others while honoring your truths. ❤️✨🙌

I have only recently discovered your voice and I'll always hear it. Sending gratitude and heart. xxx
Was going to attend your show in November. Sad news, but health always comes first ❤️
Thank you for being such a lovely inspiration for your fans and I will try my best to FEEL even though I feel too dang much at times
Blesses and hugs
Thank you for this. You’re helping me so much right now. Hal
We love you too ♥️
Lots of love from Buenos Aires, Argentina! I´ve been reading your poetry since the ¨Maybe I Need You Sofar NYC' video in 2015! You are an incredible artist❤
I remember seeing you perform at the CU Boulder campus about 20 years ago, and a poem about a kid just wanting to be pushed on a swing. It meant a lot to me then, and has stuck with me. Thank you for being who you are and for sharing so much of yourself. I am wishing you a full and speedy recovery.
Your laughter is beautiful. Lots of love and prayers. 🤍
*feeling all the things*
So much love to you. Living and loving every chance we get - thank you for such an important reminder in the midst of things that certainly can and do suck. Thank you for all you bring to this world, this life, our ears, and our hearts. Wishing you healing in all forms and as many puppy cuddles as you can handle (is there even a limit?!). ❤
Thanks for the update Andrea. I will be following you and praying for you, in my own way. I also wanted to thank you for introducing me to Chris Pureka!! I bumped into her while reading one of your newsletters, which I thoroughly enjoy by the way. Chris has a special place inside my soul now. Her music softens me and inspires me. Know that you're not alone in this. You have many friends who love you. Blessings through the storm to you!❤️
Love you all ❤ I will look forward to grabbing tickets when you are well again 😊 Good luck and we are always here for you!!
Each time I think you have the most grace and warmth a human could possibly hold, you outdo yourself again. Sending so much love to you.
At 53, I am a 22 year survivor of ovarian cancer. I hear you. I hear you
Know that your words save lives. They strengthen my partner, who is 1yr 3m into battling Ovarian Cancer & also having a reoccurrence. You saved my kids lives with your words. You've been breaking my heart open & stitching it back together since winning WoWps... Today is no different.
I am sending out love and rage and strength and endurance... calling all of the love you have generated all these years to come back to you, threefold... 💜💜💜
Thank you for sharing so openly with us. I shed many tears while listening. I'm in the midst of getting sober, and I'm learning to welcome my feelings again, to feel it all, even the unbearable. I too am learning how big my capacity is for welcoming all my feelings. I love you. I learn and grow so much from what you share about your journey. Your poetry is helping me get this through this time and hope for a different life full of feelings and growth. Sending you all my hope for healing
Your outlook on the world is so amazing and something I strive for, such a beautiful balance between hope and allowing yourself to feel pain. I wish you the best and I'm praying for you, I mean that genuinely, you're one of my biggest inspirations ❤️
Baby don’t worry- bout a thing, ‘cause every little thing’s gonna be alright. . . I love you..
Seeing your heart unfold to reveal the beauty of the world has been the biggest blessing this past year. Sending you the reflected light you have been pouring out to us.
