Oh, lisah, I'm so sorry.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I'm so sorry, lisah.
That's a great picture of Uncle Bud.
I'm so sorry, lisah.
Sorry to hear that, lisah. At least he had a long, good life?
Grace's, magically.
What, she thinks the ebil vaccine can travel backwards in time and zap someone in the womb? I dare you to bring up the question that if it can do that, why can't it jump from the person being inoculated to someone else and cause them health problems/IRS audits/lycanthropy.
I'm so sorry Lisa.
So sorry to hear about that, lisah.
I'm sorry, lisah.
Did you all know that radiolab did a story on micropreemies and didn't tell me
I was listening to that RadioLab on podcast last week, and I thought of you a lot, Kat. It was incredibly moving, and terrifying.
And even on NPR sites, one should be very cautious about reading comments.
I'm so sorry, lisah. It's very hard.
why can't it jump from the person being inoculated to someone else and cause them health problems/IRS audits/lycanthropy.
She probably thinks it can. The mere existence of vaccines is the problem.
It's amazing that her chances of breast cancer went from 87% to 5%.
Removing any woman's breasts reduces her chances of breast cancer by 90%.
I acknowledge that there are many wonderful holistic doctors working on alternatives to surgery.
Holistic? I think not. With the BCRA genes, the alternatives are mainly better screening and studies to find treatments that reduce the chances of developing cancer. For example, tamoxifen appears to reduce the chances of developing cancer in women with the BCRA2 gene, but not the BCRA1 gene.
"Family history" is a fuzzy concept. One thing that bothers me about massive coverage of family-related breast cancer is that more than 70 percent of the women who get breast cancer (including me) have no history of breast cancer in their families. It tends to give women with no family history a false sense of security.
Insurance companies these days will generally cover genetic screening for people who have a significant family history of breast cancer before age 50 and/or ovarian cancer, particularly when coupled with being of Ashkenazi, Dutch, Icelandic or Swedish descent.
I am so sorry Lisah. Uncle Bud was an awesome cat.
Good thoughts coming your way, lisah.
