A sure sign I’m starting to get nervous about this upcoming CT scan is that cancer is gradually taking over my thoughts.
On the upside: material!
Last spring, A’s longtime friend visited us with his partner. They got into a–fortunately minor–car accident. His friend broke his wrist but didn’t tell his family, who would be picking them up at the airport when they flew home to take them straight to an Easter celebration.
A joked that they would be astounded that his wrist broke on such a low-key trip—we weren’t exactly rappelling during their visit.
And then his friend responded. Or, I’ll say: You should see the other guy. He got cancer.
