My mom dropped on us, on Friday, after Thanksgiving, the news that she has a mass on her lung. PET scan on Monday will confirm recurrance of lung cancer or not. This would be her 5th instance of cancer, and 3rd within a year. She has been in near-constant pain for about 6 months now, after chemo and radiation at the beginning of the year, and all the side-effects and ailments that followed. She was barely able to sit at the table at Thanksgiving, but wanted to, anyway. I expect she will choose to forego treatment, if this cancer is confirmed.
I respect the joke, but man, this one hit me.
In a very very similar place. Big hugs. Hits hard, cause it hits hard.
Fuck cancer.
