They're currently unable to find any cancer in her body and she's next to me sleeping peacefully and deeply.
Man, what a year we've had.
I'd do it again if it meant I'd get to celebrate her birthday again next year. I'll do this as many times as I need to.
My partner had some good results with dry needling, which is like a more concentrated version of acupuncture. Might be worth looking into.Dave N. wrote: Fri Oct 06, 2023 8:34 am I saw a podiatrist last week, and he told me what I already knew- surgery is imminent. I’m hoping to hold off until Spring or Summer of next year. In the meantime, I’m going to give acupuncture a shot.
It's troubling. My older kid's HS does not have a particularly high level of security. I don't think there's ever been a problem, but the state of the nation has me wondering whether we should have more fences and guards and all that.

All of the students looked so young. I never looked that young. It was weird. More startling was the security level in place. The school was fairly large and I had difficulty finding a door that was unlocked. I'm volunteering for a refugee organization and the rollout was a bit disorganized. I finally found someone who told me where to go, and like mentioned earlier the security level was a thing I never experienced in my years of secondary schooling: guards everywhere, signing-in, metal detectors...it's really sad that this is the only world kids know. I don't want to imagine what must go through the minds of parents.
Terrible country that this is normalized.
Good band.
