Fuck! I’m so sorry, JZ (and family). Sending you all so much love!
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Oh god, JZ and David, I'm so sorry. I'm sending so much love to you and Matilda and Emmett and JZ's mom, and crossing everything that can be crossed for the biopsy to come back with the best possible results.

(skimming a lot to post my love and best wishes to JZ+family, and to all other buffistas out there with troubles and health/family/work/whatever issues. May we all hear good news/best case scenarios soon).
Fuck cancer, and I love y'all. Be well.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
JZ and David, all the love and positive vibes I can muster are headed your direction.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Sending lots of love to you, JZ.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
She’s asleep on the meds here in the hallway.
She’s on the list for a biopsy today but we don’t know when.
Hopefully this afternoon.
We might be able to get her into a room today.
Probably won’t talk to the oncologist until after the biopsy. Then we’ll discuss treatment plan. They might do chemo first to shrink the tumor. Don’t know yet.
They don’t seem to think she needs emergency surgery (no blockage or bleeding etc)
Likely here overnight but could be home tomorrow with a dilaudid scrip.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.
JZ, all the love in the world to you.
David, anything Jim and I can do, say the word.
