Thanks for asking Cindy. She's fine. She was basically up and about (within reason) a week or so after her hysterectomy (some new high tech robot surgery at Dana Farber), which is just incredible to me. Since she was stage 1A, she doesn't need chemo or radiation. And so far she's had no real syptoms from her instant menopause. Amazing.
The doctors were actually very optimistic the whole time, so it shouldn't be too surprising, but the initial diagnosis just took us to a really scary "OMG our mother died of this" place for a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That's great news, megan.
Less good news for you, ita.
I love a snarky chimneysweep!
I have bangladeshi snack mix which I think will be my dinner, and I'm only working one more day this week. Life is not bad.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
So you decided to go up to the wedding on Thursday, Jesse?

Indeed I did. I looked at my short to-do list, and the office that was still empty today, and said screw this mess.

What is even happening?
Since she was stage 1A, she doesn't need chemo or radiation. And so far she's had no real syptoms from her instant menopause. Amazing.This is terrific. And Dana Farber is, too. I think I'd been imagining she had breast cancer, so I didn't realize the surgery was a hysterectomy. That's a great recovery.

It's a horrible place to go, but how could you not, if you lost your mom to the same thing. The word is scary enough, although it is freaking amazing that just in our life time, hearing "cancer" doesn't have to mean what it once did. I'm so glad her prognosis is so great.

Cool. Have fun.

Plus, my mom lived just six months after her diagnosis, so that added to the "gloom and doom" atmosphere of it all.
ETA: I was interrupted by a call from my sister. She's just ridiculously chipper.

Hey, tonight's Dead Like Me on SciFi has both what's his name from Oz and Lost (not Adebisi, the other one), AND Kaylee. Edit: Harold Perrineau.

One of the NYC associates just emailed asking for examples of 20-Fs (reports filed with the SEC by foreign companies who do business here) filed by Puerto Rican companies.
