#my mom has cancer

Does anyone have any tips for finding good long term nursing facilities?

What should I look for for red flags?

What about green flags?

Listen folks, there’s really nothing like the comfort of a good fanfic after some of the shittiest news you can get. It’s so nice to be able to be able to bury yourself into fandom posts to take your mind off heavy thoughts. Thanks fandom fam.

ahah yeah I love last minute plans

and being around people I don't know well (or at all) without an easy way to leave if I don't feel the vibe

and also I'm a big fan of family gatherings in general yeah, how did you guess!!

I am so bloody uncomfortable and upset atm. My mom just came to my house, and she was so upset and burst out in tears. I can't go into details too much but I just need to vent a lil? Let's just say that after my grandfather's funeral, the contact between my step grandmother is over. I hate her so freaking much.

My mom felt up to ask the nurses to help her sit on the side of the bed!

She is feeling less tired and more interested in food

Haven't been following the James Somerton drama closely but it's become so ridiculous that it's funny

Is no one going to talk about the fact that he said that he thought it was okay for him to mention Vito Russo in the opening credits and then never mention him again because his book was out of print and Russo was dead....

And then in the same breath say that he was 'extending Russo's legacy' like my brother in Christ do you even hear yourself-

I drive 12 hours to help a friend with an emergency only to also have two other emergencies happen and I'm angry and scared and I hate this.

[centeringme]

I uhh… disappeared for a while. I had a little mental health spiral, but I’m doing better now.

I knew there was something more to that break up. I was ready to hate hyeon jun if he did cheat but it turned out to be more complicated than that.

I dont know what everyone else was thinking when they saw seok ryu and hyeon jun argue but to me heon jun didnt do anything wrong. Even saying the things he said to seok ryu about her "damned depression" i can forgive him. It was a mean thing to say and seok ryu had the right to get angry but taking care of a sick person takes a toll on you. Its hard. Its frustrating. Even if you love this person so much you can get angry that you have to deal with it. You wish it wasnt like this. You want to escape and not think about it even for just one day. That's why he wanted to party. Seok ryu took that as him not caring about her but i think he did that to stay sane and forget about all the bad things for a while. But since seok ryu cant do that, she cant just forget and run away from it because she is the one dealing with it personally, she felt betrayed. I do think he shouldnt have said the things about his reputation and her dragging him down with him. That was too much. But everything else i understand.

I think he does actually still love her and has a right to love her and come find her again to win her back. And seok ryu knows this and that's why she did consider getting back with him for a moment. But it's too late because she has moved on.

my mom read one or two articles with supposed "statistics" that say sleeping in a bra or even just frequently wearing a bra causes breast cancer and like I cannot believe that she's fearmongering to me about "would you rather wear a bra to bed because 'it's so uncomfortable without it' and have to fight breast cancer, or would you rather get your priorities fixed?"

My therapist has had to walk me thru the curse of knowledge at least 3 times now bc I forget cancer science basics are in fact. Not basics for everyone. Very funny interactions to say the least.

Me: idk, it just feels like I don't have anything to contribute beyond deep research dives for specific cancers. I don't see value in my general neoplasm reviews where I just break down the differences between malignant primary/secondary, benign, carcinoma in situ, and uncertain vs unspecified behavior tumor classifications. :(

My therapist, taking the deepest breath possible: The curse of knowledge, once more from the top
