Ha! I love MM's complete nonchalance at the thought that billytea would be flying across the Pacific with a marsupial companion.
My biopsy was postponed pending some bloodwork, so I go for it tomorrow. Which, of course, this is my first week of f/t work so I have to take time off, which wouldn't have been the case last week. OTOH, we've got a diagnosis, so the biopsy is just to find out if it's cancerous.
The diagnosis is (white-fonted for squick and personal and girlyparts)
lichen sclerosus of the labia. Atrpophied skin, razor-like cuts, and my favorite, ulcerating lesions.
A rare condition, yay me. R's pissed because it's taken weeks of visiting multiple doctors to get this far, and he believes that if the same symptoms were on a man's penis, that man would've been medevaced immediately. Maybe he's right, still doesn't change the fact that it's August and everyone's on vacation. I think the doctors are being very proactive.
So some not-cancer-ma, please? The other is incurable, but treatable, so things are okay as long as it doesn't become malignant.
BT, if you're about, there was a brief conversation about you today in our house.
Hee. That's fantastic. However, I must note that the Wallybee is not coming with me. Your government isn't so keen on visitors holding a passport from the People's Republic of China, apparently. We'll be taking a week off in Alice Springs when I get back to Oz.
Oh Raq baby, all the health in the world to you. All the benign-ness in the world to you, too.
(And I think Robert's speaking gospel truth, by the by.)

Raq, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Pamela (of the 'holy shit that's a lot of cancer' fame) gets much of my ~ma and the rest is yours.
I am really tired of having this delineation in friends, I really am.
Oh, Raq! Much ~ma and thoughts and prayers headed your way.
Good grief! What is going on here?! I demand that things get better for my Buffistas!
Good health ~ma to Raq! May it be totally benign. (R. is not wrong.)
Emmett rocks.
What fun watching the bookcase pictorial saga staring sexay Beth.
{{Raq}} Quick comfort and benign ~ma.
Emmett!! Woo Hoo! What an exciting game.
So why don't we have pictures of ND and Kristin's bookcase party?
Wow, I sound like a total ass now that I reread. What I maybe meant to say is that my ~ma is with Raq.
Back to sleep for me, obviously.
{{{Raq}}} Benign~ma. I'm so sorry all of this is taking so long.
