Cautious optimism can be a good thing, Calli. Continued ~ma for your dad and your whole family.
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

No, that price was just for me.
Oh, dang. That sucks, I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry Drew. But I'm glad you were there and he was home.

I'll try not to make things Calli's Cancer Show all the time, now that I've just recently rejoined b.org.
We can handle it.
When's the last time you were in PA, Connie? Was that 25 years ago?

Pretty much. I'll only be there for two days, really, so I won't get much time to look around. But hopefully I can borrow a car and drive out to the old house and take some pictures. Hubby wants to see where I grew up.

the doctor is cautiously optimistic that Dad probably has a nodular type that can be treated with a minimally awful form of chemo.
I hope this turns out to be the case. And this
If she's wrong we'll deal with that next week.
Seems like the way to handle the situation. My thoughts are with you and your family.
No, that price was just for me.
Do they do a discount when you're traveling to a funeral for a close family member? Do airlines do that anymore? (I know Southwest doesn't but that's because they are generally so reasonably priced. Even if you are traveling on very short notice.)

Bereavment fares are awful. Very rarely any kind of decent discount. If you have them, you are better off using frequent flyer miles (they will sometimes waive requirements for use for bereavement)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Do airlines do that anymore?
No. I had to pay full fare to go to my grandfather's funeral.
(The excuse I was given was that web prices are what most people pay, and a bereavement fare at half the *full* price of a ticket would have actually been more expensive, so most airlines have dropped them entirely.)
