here's the deal: chemo is some scary stuff. so for those of you not informed, my mom has breast cancer. or at least that's what they keep telling her, bc the more that i see my mom the more that i dont think that woman has anything wrong with her. so i went with her to the place where she's supposed to get her chemo, first off all the people in this place are old, like in their 70's, (my mom is definately not 70, she can do laps around the old folks.) think of the simpsons and how grandpa simpson is in that old folks home, yea, picture that, and thats what this office kinda looks like. a place like that is gonna make anyone feel sick. i was looking at these ppl thinking that there might be something wrong with me....but there isnt and that the point. the doctor (this very adorable little asian man) spent like an hr talking about my mom's test and what the results are. and basically, there's nothing wrong with my mom, but the thing with cancer is that they're not sure of anything really. they have no way of detecting cancerous cells, and no way of knowing if anything has spread. so there was one point where he was describing the "nastiness" of the cells (i shit u not) and then proceeded to tell the side effects for all the chemo, that they're not even certain they should be giving her, and i was just like "well what happens if they dont treat it" bc the cure sounds really bad. so yea, for something that they're at this point not even sure that she has anymore (she's already had surgery), they're gonna start chemo and subject her to some more test, but its all just a guessing game, which i personally dont feel anyone should go thru. but yea, thats my day thus far...
