JZ, at least the treatments available today may prolong survival until a time when there are more effective treatments available? Fingers all crossed for your little bro's chemo and procedures to work as well as possible.
And I wonder, what possible catastrophe came crashing down from heaven and brought this dashing stranger to tears?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That sounds pretty rough, JZ. I hope it helps.

Dammit, forgot to bring in my decaf coffee. Have a new cold brew set up to try but no coffee to brew.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Sending love and support, JZ. A good friend is 3 or 4 years out from that same treatment for multiple myeloma and is doing great. There's reason to hold onto hope.

In more meme/wth?! news, I am really hoping that my student's Kid Rock for US Senate sticker is ironic. Do college students do irony these days?

Do college students do irony these days?
I remember people saying that irony died on 9/11. I guess the irony-free generation is reaching college age now.

My nephew recently posted something about post-ironic art on Facebook, but I don't know if that applies to bumper stickers.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
JZ, much love and strength to you and your brother.
-t, I hope this new/old job is more pleasant than your current one.
I have been negotiating contracts for a week with an agency. I am not used to government paying that much attention.
