Oh wow, Burrell. That sounds hard. I'm glad things are seeming as positive as they could.
Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Brenda, that's a scary-looking picture you posted on Facebook. I hope everything's OK.

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.
Burrell, lots of ~ma for your sister that the treatent will do what it is supposed to do while harming the rest of her as little as possible.

It's storming here, it's 73 in my house, it's grey and it smells GORGEOUS!
LOVE.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
It's nice, I intend to enjoy it while it lasts. A hummingbird is sitting at my feeder, waiting out the rain.

Much treatment~ma for your sister, Burrell.
Jesse, I hope things work out as well as possible for your parents.

Our wings are not tired.
Best possible outcomes wishes.
Burrell, my friend started chemo about 6 weeks ago. She has many troublesome complications and it was difficult to feel hopeful. But she is doing so much better than anticipated. She is still a 97 pound weakling (my nickname for her), but her tumors are absolutely shrinking and she hasn't had any serious side effects. Cancer sucks and there is still a whole lot of science that needs to happen for real solutions, but the treatments have improved significantly.
I sincerely hope that your sister's treatment is effective and that it brings her relief.

My last rental was organized by a cancer survivor. I never would have guessed. She had the most gorgeous curly grey hair, and worked like a dog setting up and cleaning up, seeming to have the energy of someone twenty years younger than she was. There is hope and life on the other side.
Best of luck, Burrell.

Yes, all good! It was a freaky picture of a totally non-freaky situation.
