I'm sorry, lisah.
Response to chemo is an individual thing. My neighbor and his partner were told to get his affairs in order because he would not survive, and he was in dire shape for a long time, but he recovered. Lifetime changes with severe diabetes and significant fatigue, but his cancer is gone. Maybe 6 years now? I've known too many others who couldn't tolerate the treatment. There is no way to predict in advance.
So I just found out that my back door neighbor for 20 years died yesterday of cancer. She was Bobby's second mom. Her son officiated Bobby's wedding, and the reception was at her home. It was apparently very sudden, or she kept it very private. A few years ago her elderly mom moved in with them, and she is still alive. I'm broken hearted for her family, and Bobby, as he loved her so much. I sent a message to Bobby, but I doubt I will hear from him. This is a big shock.
I’m sorry about so many losses among the buffistae.
Baltimore peeps, please check in.
I saw on FB that msbelle is fine. Fucking bridges, man.
Yep, I am far north of there as are Lisa and Sara. Both of them I believe work from home.
My condolences, shrift and lisah.
That bridge collapse is horrifying.
Yes, I’m on the other side of town from that bridge and rarely use it. How horrifying it is!!
