You think she gives a fuck about you? Would she be lamenting such a diagnosis for anyone here? 'snip'



Nope and nope. And it doesn't matter. It's not about her, it's about me. When she dies she dies. She is not a friend to me, the Republic or humanity. But I choose not to put more negative crap in my walking around ruck than I have to. I'm burdened enough without adding a grudge or ill wish that won't change anything.

Note that I'm not hoping for her miraculous remission, that's her problem, not mine.

I hope she has a doctor and treatment crew as competent as she is.

I don't wish cancer on anyone either but I can nod in acknowledging karma.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

That is one cancer you do not survive.You need 10% of your pancreas living to stay in this world and that one kills it completely. No matter how much money you have and even billions, you are done.While I am not a doctor, as a Type 1 Diabetic, I have a better understanding of this organ than most. Say goodnight Gracie!

The impeding to action advances action.

This whole thread brings to mind that Mark Twain quote about not wishing death on anyone, but reading some obituaries with pleasure.

I’m trying to keep the negativity out of my life and not wish ill on anyone, but folks like her, maxipad waters, Tony Fauci, FJB, etc don’t make it easy.

"Today, we have two Vietnams, side by side, North and South, exchanging and working. We may not agree with all that North Vietnam is doing, but they are living in peace. I would look for a better human rights record for North Vietnam, but they are living side by side."

"Maybe I should offer a good thanks to the distinguished members of the majority, the Republicans, my chairman and others, for giving us an opportunity to have a deliberative constitutional discussion that reinforces the sanctity of this nation and how well it is that we have lasted some 400 years operating under a constitution that clearly defines what is constitutional and what is not.

A half an hour before I saw she had cancer I prayed to God to help this country. Just saying.

“Sometimes you need to take the opportunity just to come out and see a full moon is that complete rounded circle, which is made up mostly of gasses.

And that’s why the question is: Why or how could we as humans live on the moon? Are the gases such that we could do that?"
