Thank you very much. I think I'm going to bed (hopefully).

College friend posted today from the hospital, he’s been diagnosed with leukemia (AML). He says they tell him his prognosis is hopeful, but he’s about to plunge into chemo. He’s a naturally upbeat guy and is putting a positive face on it but I imagine it is terrifying nonetheless.

good luck to your friend, tipsy. a friend of mine had a different leukaemia. he's basically ok now (apart from Covid shielding) but it was a really tough time for a long time.
― kinder, Sunday, 21 February 2021 08:49 (five years ago)
Sorry to hear PBKR and tipsy. Strength to you both.

I know that it's the fuck cancer thread, but sometimes we can all use some good news here, so I just thought I'd share that my colonoscopy this week came back clean, and I won't have to have another for two years. I was very nervous, and of course the process is ungodly gross and hellish in a certain way, but I am very relieved.

table do you not get fully anesthetized for your colonoscopy? I've had a total of one (1) and they knocked me out and woke me up after and it was all in all kind of a nothing experience.
― That's not really my scene (I'm 41) (forksclovetofu), Sunday, 21 February 2021 21:19 (five years ago)
While we are on that topic: after procrastinating and not dealing with that for several years, I recently spoke to my new doctor, the one who was on call when I first had my COVID symptoms, who prescribed the box for me, and the result just came back negative.

Mom had surgery last week to remove her brain tumor. Surgery went well, though there are the expected after effects (mostly language issues) which should resolve. She will be starting pretty intense radiation and chemo at some point as well. Baby steps.

Glad surgery went well, thinking of you and her!

ah fuck. close family member has breast cancer. really hoping they can start treatment quickly. covid hasn't helped with all this, but they have had their jab a few weeks ago. I feel quite helpless not being able to do anything.
― kinder, Monday, 8 March 2021 21:34 (five years ago)
sorry to hear. one of my oldest friends has breast cancer, and is having surgery this week. luckily, the fact that she lives in a crazy polycule sex situation worked to her benefit— she caught it early.
― it's like edging for your mind (the table is the table), Monday, 8 March 2021 21:47 (five years ago)
That did make me smile :) best wishes to her. I think this was caught early too and survival rates are generally very good. Just hate the fact we can't jump in a car and go down there - or maybe we can, if they are willing to take the risk, I dunno, but when, it's a headfuck.
― kinder, Monday, 8 March 2021 21:52 (five years ago)
Good luck to everyone coping with this thing.
I'm not really coping at all at the moment. Hoping it's a blip rather than the shape of things to come.

onimo, I wish you strength/peace in dealing with your struggle.

Sorry to hear that, onimo, I hope you're doing a bit better soon. And yes, if there's anything random internet people can do to help, please give a shout!

my dad is in hospital with sepsis and one of my best friends is in hospital with bacterial and fungal infections and may not make it out. I haven't wanted to post about this on ilx after last time but fuck it. fuck everything
