seafood of any sort was completely out of the question for me (and consider the source on that one)
Hmm. I think she's still eating seafood, but I will ask my sister how she's doing.
I don't mean to sound like my sister is doing a bad job or anything. Me, I offer to shave my head if my mother's going to lose her hair to chemo. My sister is willing to make all the same dietary choices my mother does in order to make it easier for her to eat. She's 100% point guard in everything cancer-related for my mother.
I think that makes it harder, though. I mean, it's good, it's great, but it's really high stress.

It wouldn't surprise me if she was--it's so completely based on the person. It's much more a what's right or wrong for the person involved than what's right or wrong or typical overall. If anyone else says differently, fuck 'em.
Now I'm doing the dance of "Do I fly into San Francisco or San Jose?" Augh. Why so awkward to get to, Mother Ship?
I think the type of chemo might affect how things taste, too. Mom was on cisplatin for her ovarian cancer, I believe. One of the platinum-based chemos, anyway. And she said that everything tasted metallic. I think Dad was on something different for his lymphoma, and things didn't taste metallic to him as much as the texture suddenly became much more of an issue.

San Jose
San Jose, as long as the flights aren't too inconvenient/expensive. Smaller, and closer to MV.
So, I just heard the term "elephant walk" for the first time. Well, this definition, anyway. Is the hazing-related walk a real thing? Frequent enough to be cited as such? Or just an urban legend to trash talk frats?
Do I want to know how this came up in conversation?
What does "elephant walk" mean, in hip urban parlance?
