When I left my other doctor, it was almost like going through a breakup because I just adore them.

but when I got into the appointment, it was so disheartening.

It was like, these are your options.

You can try these clinical trials.

They'll work in some people, or you can just choose to kind of live out the rest of your life and not be a cancer patient.

And I don't want to say it's definitely terminal right away, just because they're saying it's incurable for many people.

They can still do treatments over time that can keep you alive for a while.

They just come with

pretty harsh side effects and some of them can be frightening.

So my partner and my best friend are in that room with me.

My partner is crying.

I'm trying to almost wrestle my best friend.

Because she's so mad at the energy of all the what she's calling doom.

And but I just is like I was like, this is part of it.

I have to take this in and I have to hear this.

And I also have to sit here with compassion for this woman who is having to share this news with me and the nobility here.

of a job like that and taking that on.

And yeah, I felt a lot of love for her.

And, and then I walked out and I said, that is, and I know the odds that this is probably what's going to happen.

And also I believe in miracles and magic.
