When mine complain about being "cold" I've started to respond with "sounds like you need a hot flash or a hoodie" πŸ™ˆ

Would be interested to see how the average temp over the years corresponds to attendance. Took my kids on Aug 23 and it was so hot out even a reprieve at the super dogs wasn't enough. We make an effort to go every year but at some point the heat is a con not a pro

It is. I'm Canadian and went through chemo last year for breast cancer. At no point did I, or my medical team, make treatment decisions based on cost. The most I paid was for my coffee or lemonade during treatment. I cant imagine the burden of needing to factor cost into care.

Fucking brca. Hate how the people we love most are the ones who understand it the most.

Wishing you both NED for a long, long time.

FSDOs (local FAA field offices) do lots of compliance and enforcement around aircraft maintenance and operational issues. I'm not speculating on the cause of the crash, just informing that the FAA does more than just air traffic control.

BMX yesterday, and let me tell you, the relief of getting two ticking time bombs off of me is absolute bliss.

It’s best to avoid platitudes when a loved one is facing cancer (or any horrible situation, for that matter).

The kindest thing you can do is listen and try to sit with them in the pain, fear and discomfort.

Chemotherapy is the most badass I have ever been and the least badass I have ever felt.

Same but opposite over here. Just finished neoadjuvant chemo and double masectomy for next month. Ovaries and tubes are getting chopped out in the spring. I have one sister whose negative and waiting on results for the other. Fingers crossed its just me who has it 🀞

Oh hey mines also BRCA1! But good God the amount of times I've had to tell people no my BC at 34 wasn't due to the vax, and mRNA didnt change my DNA, and my mom got BC at 32 in 1996 so 34 was relatively good, like it's all so exhausting at this point

I was in a small BRCA gene support group that suddenly exploded with this nonsense. Like a gene that everyone in the group would have had at conception decades ago. And yet, this was still entertained! Drove me so mad I couldn't stay!

Like you said, it wasn't all bad. It brought me closer to my mom and made me more present as a mom. I'm sorry you know this feeling too
