I find that I just don't know enough about cancer of any type to know what to expect next with all this.
MG, my mom went through treatment for Stage 3 ovarian cancer this year. She's now doing really well, especially for a 78 year old with half a dozen other medical problems. I only know what I learned from her specific case, but if you want anecdotal info I'll be happy to discuss things. (Profile addy good.) Also, I'll recommend the book Ovarian Cancer: Your Guide to Taking Control. I read it when I was trying to figure out what Mom's meds were and what the whole staging thing meant. Very useful.
health~ma to your assistant, MG.
I'm terribly sad because I was GOING to see a really good friend of mine who lives in Jersey today (she's only home for the holidays, and this might be our only possible day) and the transit strike has pretty much Fucked. It. Up. Boo!
ETA: Then again, the PATH is still running! Maybe we can work this!

Universe seriously needs to knock this crap off.
Also, what JZ said.
Since it seems to be necessary, {{{{bitches!!!!}}}}
Mostly dealing with work craziness myself (and will be for the foreseeable future), but I had a good review and bonus this year (now to see if there's any significant raise involved too).
However, I'm all for kicking 2005 to the curb.
Thanks Calli - I have marked your post for future reference.
My boss's boss just called me again. The "fight" over my promotion is still going on. No one denies me the $ side, just the move from hourly to salaried and both sides have their heels dug in DEEP. She just wanted to assure me that they are working on this and hope to have a resolution in a week.
I had been told that they were going to be shifting a lot of the accounting folks, but something got changed and now it is just me. So this really is ALL ABOUT ME. Add another fuck to the fire.
{{MG}} Too much. You've gone through way too much. You need chocolate and champagne.
Kara was given a card by one of her classmates. It's a fairly typical nativity scene. She explained the picture to me.
I was born in heaven. See? This baby with all the light around it is me and there's an angel holding me. And this guy over here, that's Jesus looking at me, and this guy.... I think this guy is Tarzan. Is Tarzan in heaven?
