Randomness

Apparently my birthday is today, at least according to LJ, even though it's the 28th but hey whatever LJ is always right you know ;)

I should be around much more now that mom is settled. For those out of the loop she had another surgery, this time removing her spleen which had doubled in size. They say there was some rare weird ass cancer that they don't even treat, except occasionally with a non-chemo pill. It's just very odd idk, the whole thing just sounds like they are making crap up. Cause the first test they said looked weird, and then the second was completely normal..*shrugs*

Even if she does have it though, it's like cancer-lite, so it's not that worrysome. I'm more worried about her pancreas freaking the hell out again.

I'll post about all my TV feels in a few days, but right now I just say *SOB 666*

Also I am in need of a landcom, though idk what is even still functioning, or about to close or what-not. I may just have to surrender and rejoin HiH since it seems to be fully functioning. Anyone got any landcom suggestions?

Also Holiday Cards I reallllly want to send a bunch out and I only have like 3 people so go and sign up, idc where you live or if you are sending out cards, I just really want to send a bunch. I may have to go check out the stocking place and send some to random people.

YES LAUREN I WILL GO SIGN UP FOR A CARD BY CLICKING THIS LINK

Happy Birthday, sweetie! Yes, DW also says it's your birthday today, so it's not just LJ. Maybe you were having a "moment" when you signed up? Hee!

So glad to hear your Mom is on the mend. My Dad had Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, which sounds a bit like the cancer you're describing (it's a cancer of the blood, usually found in senior citizens). And yes, they often do not really treat it, because they say people usually die of old age before dying from that. But based on my Dad's experience, if that's what your Mom has, I'd find a doctor who's willing to treat it, because it did seriously impact his quality of life, in that he was always physically exhausted. He never got any treatment for it except for a few blood transfusions, and if Mum and I had known what was going on we would have pressed for more to be done for him.

Anyway, as for Landcomms - why not come back to ncis_verse? We're doing a mini-round right now, no teams, and will be starting over with two new teams in January, right here on DW. We're small, but we're having a blast, and we'd love to have you join us again! :D

Well dreamwidth e-mailed me saying my b-day was coming up on the 28th so *shrug* both sites say the 28th on it lol.

She has Splenic marginal zone B-cell lymphoma. Which is the spleen and bone marrow, and occasionally the lymph nodes.

Treatment is removal of the spleen if it is troublesome, which hers is gone now. Plus the drug if there starts to be large number of cells in the marrow. Since the lymph nodes are rarely affected usually you don't have the kind of fatigue and such.

They are going to check her bone marrow in Jan, since they wanted to let her body heal from having 2 surgerys so close together.
