Sorry about your uncle, Dana.
I was thinking it was fibroids or similar which is often major surgery but then the end of it.
I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm sorry that your uncle has this diagnosis, Dana.
The speculation now seems to be uterine or cervical found after surgery.

I was thinking maybe it was ulcerative colitis and she had to have a big chunk of intestines removed and maybe an ostomy bag. But wow.

My good friend had uterine cancer that was discovered due to fibroid surgery. In her case a much quicker resolution.
Still agog at how terribly they’ve managed all this, and how shitty a person Wills is proving to be. But a ton of empathy to Kate and the kids.
We’re kind of reeling in my family today due to the terrorist attack in Moscow. My brother-in-law Sergei was at the concert and happened to leave about 10 minutes ahead of the attack.
And in a separate post: she does not have the time to check the board these days, but I wanted to let you all know that Nilly's eldest will have his Bar Mitzvah soon. He'll be reading Book of Esther this Sunday/Monday.
It's an extra joy to bring good news to this board, after announcing mostly bad news in the past six months.
1000% what I needed to hear today. Mazel Tov!

Eeep! That was too close for comfort.

Man, brenda, that's terrifying.

Wow Brenda, that is a sure stroke of luck! Dang.

Relieved to hear that Sergei left the concert in time, Brenda.
