I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So great, dcp! Come on survival stats, keep getting better!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

meara, it's an odd flex, but: metastatic de novo, stage IVb, cTX, cN1, cM1b, PSA = 11201.7

Not a record-breaker, but still pretty unusual.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Great news, dcp!

I tested negative on Wednesday, and went back to work yesterday. Whee.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is great news, dcp!

Congrats, meara!

I'm sure I had other things, but I forget. TGIF, man.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

Many wishes for continued good numbers and great happiness, dcp. I'm so very glad you're here.

Our wings are not tired.

I am proud to continue to push the survival stats higher.

Well done! My sister had a part of her lung removed over 25 years ago and is down to yearly tests and scans now, but it still brings anxiety every time she has a test. No changes results are celebrated every time.

Thrive to spite them

Next Wednesday I can finally start adding foods back from this elimination diet and I'm so glad

I swear I've been more spacy and forgetful since I've been on it. But it's probably from all the stuff I'm depriving myself. I know I went on the extreme end of this because my stomach kept hurting and I got conflicting info from different sources.

It seems to be working so I just have to figure out the problem foods. And I have an endoscopy on June 24th.

My birthday is the 16th so I'm hoping I'll at least have figured out if dairy is an issue or gluten so I can have some kind of treat to celebrate.
