Hee. I'll try not to.
Anya: It's lovely! I wish it was mine! Oh like you weren't all thinking the same thing. Giles: I'm fairly certain I wasn't.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Kristin, yay awesome trip, and yay awesome-sounding new job!

So. Um. Shit. Now I know why mom and dad were so insistent about having brunch with me today.
Mom had her mammogram on Monday. Apparently, she had to have another one on Friday. She sees the surgeon on Tuesday. They're moving very quickly, because my grandma died of breast cancer.
Mom said not to worry. Yeah, right. I SO did not need One. More. Thing.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
The Universe is now officially ON NOTICE. It needs to seriously lay off.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
vw--So is this a biopsy or do they know it's cancer? I know it's impossible not to worry, but remember, even if it IS cancer, breast cancer is INCREDIBLY treatable these days.

I need to remind myself that things have come a long way since Grandma died. I mean, that was 20 years ago.

Let's hope it's a cyst or a benign tumor. 90% of biopsies are nothing (except anxiety-producing). I've had a couple and they are not fun, but not the worst procedure in terms of quick recovery. I am sending all kinds of vibes mom-ward and strength to you and your dad, too.

What is even happening?
vw, I'm so sorry. I hope that everything goes well with her, and I'm glad they're not wasting time with anything.
Did they say what they did see on the mammo (like a mass vs. calcification, etc.)?
