I'm not even awake 10 minutes before Dad waylays me 'Your uncle has the MRI in his portal and he wants you to look at it but I've looked and it looks bad. He wants you to call him. Well fuck. Yeah so there are signs the brain cancer is coming back even while he's doing the chemo. As you can imagine this is a bad sign. I try to explain it without saying it's coming back because I don't know for sure. I'm not a brain specialist and I just don't want to be the one to say this. He sees the doctor in just a few days. Let them handle this because there may be other things that can be done. It may be two days ago was the last time I'll see my uncle alive. I didn't go yesterday because of my sore throat. I didn't want to expose him to whatever this is.
My own health sucks it this morning with my blood sugar at 300 in spite of insulin and pills and I'm at a loss so this makes it so sad.
The drive home went wrong too because the bridge to Steubenville is closed on the left lane and the ramp JUST before it is closed at the right and if you're not paying attention....3 car pile up with injuries. I was there for 45 minutes (and I couldn't even go off the ramp because the bridge over to Steubenville down the road is closed entirely). I hope those people weren't hurt badly but there were several ambulances there...
Much of Route 7 was one lane but at least the traffic was light. Rocket is here and in good health. However my porch nearly killed me (I need to call my landlord) and I can't believe everyone is just letting this huge ass banana tree overgrow the walk way. This weekend I'm cutting branches out, screw this.
Tonight it's supposed to be in the 40s (WTH??) so I have the windows open and looking forward to that.
depressed,
diabetes blows,
family crap
