Yeah, i know a meme is kinda flippant, but so are words from a rando on the internet... Your work is appreciated. Thanks to the work of folks like you, an old buddy got to spend an extra year or so with his wife and kids.
That's fucking awesome. I don't know y'all, but that put a smile on my face, because every win against cancer is a beautiful thing. Here's to y'all having a long and happy life!
it really felt like living in the future, and not the experience i expected from media. cancer drugs have come a long way from even a decade ago. the rather invasive surgeries were robotic, and precise. very weird, but in a good way.
Meanwhile we just learned that my FiL's chemo was all for nothing and we need to start planning for his end of life care... 65 years old, won't make it to 66, it fucking sucks.
We are in the same club. My wife had surgery and chemo for colon cancer last year. She's testing clean. We are hopeful that it's all behind us now. But the neuropathy from the chemo is still very bad. It may be another full year of that.
This either prompted a Baader–Meinhof phenomenon for me, or I heard you on the radio this morning. I practically never listen on the radio, don't really remember hearing the term "ring the bell" before reading your post here. Would be fun if the world was that small.
