When is Lumie back from the ban? I've got lots of osteoradionecrosis ptt in the HBO tank. Maybe we can do an RCT. Half gets randomized to include Lumie's garlic cure. Maybe we can bring the 99.9% success chance up to 99.99%? For science!
That was the saddest part when my dad died last year, on the day my kid turned 9 months old. He'd be laughing his ass off at the things she pulls now at just over 2 years. I tear up every time she does something really new and think "if only your grandpa could see you doing that".
That's my only regret about not starting a family earlier in life. My parents had me late(they were early 30s) and I didn't start a family until my mid 30s, so now I have a 1 year old and both of my parents are only a few years off from 70. I really hope they are around long enough to see their only grandchild grow up, but the odds aren't good that they'll be around long enough to see him graduate high school.
My dad turned 39 thirteen days after I was born.
I don't think I deal with this better than others, but I have no choice. I have to try my best. I read somewhere that all people with a terminal illness go through the same phases. I don't remember all of them, but denial and anger is included. The last one is acceptance which is when you finally are at peace with your situation. I figured I'd skip all of those shitty phases and go directly to acceptance which would then improve the quality of my remaining life. But, it's easy to say it and not so easy to follow through mentally.
I hope he gets cancer diagnosed by an actual doctor, he might find it harder to cure real cancer than self diagnosed cancer caused by mental illness.
People do get in situations where ambulances take them to the ER and shit can be discovered.
