Excellent. Doesn't feel like it's been five years. Time gets faster every year.

I have another friend with breast cancer. Recently I learned it was metastatic and in her spine, fracturing one of her vertebrae. She posted on facebook that she was having to learn to walk again. She just posted this:

It's a complete fucker. I didn't really realize before that she has no chance of surviving this I figured it wasn't looking good, but zero is a hard stat to deal with

She is the awesome. So kind. I first met her at preschool -she came in after I had been there for several years but had been there with older kids and was a former president. She took over the presidency again from me. Her best friend was the librarian/media specialist at the alternative K-8 school we went chose and she encouraged us that we were doing the right thing. She invited us to fantastic bonfire parties in the fall where the kids did hayrides and I burned stuff. After preschool was done, I met back up with her in the summers as her youngest swim and dove. then I met her again as our kids went to the same high school and shared classes. And her youngest dove and made states so out team supported theirs. And she came to be the lunchroom supervisor at the k-8 school (her friend was now the principal) And then she got cancer. She fought both mastectomies ...instead of quitting or telling kids not to hug her, she strapped cushions to her waist so kids could hug her but wouldn't reach the danger zone. I can't write any more.

So sorry to hear this Monster.

Mum's friend Maureen (who was very good to me when I lived with my parents in Aylesbury) goes in for a lumpectomy tomorrow. I sent her a card with a simple good luck message as Mum is out of the country.

I'm hoping that Maureen's experience will be the same us Mum's; reached in plenty of time and Fuck Cancer it's all gone, we win.

It's hard to remember sometimes that this is not everyone's experience and it still has so many opportunities to end lives, and make others almost unbearably hard.
