so. um.
I am at math camp for biostatistics. which means we talk a lot about diseases and survival curves and fun things. and it's kind of the most awkward thing ever because our professor in the morning lost his wife to breast cancer a year ago last Thursday, and he sits in on some of our afternoon classes where we talk about...cancer (sometimes. sometimes it's biology that i don't remember from high school and makes me want to take a nap. sometimes it's the framingham heart study.)
also. i talked to my mom on friday and...cancer. small. probably early enough that it hasn't gotten anywhere else. but scary nonetheless. she is having surgery tomorrow...meaning today.
not going to class.
