Much ~ma for brilliant surgical maneuvers, and easy rapid recovery for Tim.
But I'm also relieved to not push her through this wringer any longer. It has been brutalizing.
I've been close to people who chose the worst brutalizing treatments, and those who chose to treasure whatever pleasures they could with their time with loved ones. It is an incredibly personal decision and I always respected that, but it is kinder to body and spirit to not suffer through the most aggressive treatments.
May you have a longer lifetime to treasure the everyday moments than anticipated.
I can accept death. What I have a hard time accepting is why certain people get less time on earth than certain other people. I will never understand it, and remain shaking my fists at the sky angry that some of the absolute best people get fewer days, fewer years, than some of the most atrocious.
Yeah, that's hard to get past.

Good job on Tim's spine! De-curve that kid.
Jacqueline woke up this morning and requested poached eggs and she ate them both and that's a good start on the day. Definitely better than yesterday's oatmeal misadventure.
We're talking with our UCSF oncologist via Zoom at noon today to talk about the plan going forward.

That sounds delightful!
I’m waiting for the surgeon to come talk to me, b/c the surgery is over. And then I want a great big burger and a crunchy salad.
That's good to hear - food request. May it settle well and properly.
Been pulling for Tim all morning.
ETA: I was talking about JZ'S request, but same for Steph's burger.
Much love to JZ, DavidS and family. I don't know what else to say.

Now I have seen pictures of your breakfast eggs and I can see where they would stimulate an appetite.
Yes, celebrate the surgery being completed with a nice yummy lunch. Go Tim's spine!

I am happy to read this. I was talking to my mother yesterday and she said, “Oh, I know who Jacqueline is she’s always saying lovely things about my granddaughter on Facebook. She seems like such a lovely person.” So, she sends her good thoughts your way as well.
I hope Tim’s surgery went well today.
Love and ~ma to all of you.
