dyk life can change in an instant
dyk I am having the saddest day in the office I can imagine.
dyk my favorite colleague found out last night that she has a brain tumor and I have spent the day trying to get her work covered.
dyk and as if that weren't enough, when I asked our managing partner if he could cover something, he said no because his wife begins chemo that day. Then he realized that he had not told anyone in the office she had cancer and he freaked out.

dyk and most of my colleagues don't know the details of the horrors going on around here.
dyk everyone knows someting is wrong, but not exactly what.
dyk we are a small group, so this is going to be tough.

dyk my heart is so heavy today, I feel like it could burst
dyk my friend/colleague/boss with the tumor -- she is such a happy, life-loving person
dyk we are friends with her whole family; just attended her oldest daughter's wedding
dyk this daughter is a new doctor, in a residency at NYU. When she heard her mother's symptoms, she insisted on the MRI that led to the initial diagnosis
dyk I know there is a wide range of potential outcomes and I am trying so hard to be positive

dyk John was cranky this morning. Really, really cranky. Traffic was bad, he has a lot of work stress and the new allergist told him last night that he needs asthma treatments before he can even begin allergey shots
dyk but when I pulled him out of the shower this morning because I was so upset about my friend/colleague/boss, John was awesome.

dyk my stepmom had a huge brain tumor. She has been healthy for five years since it was removed
dyk my grandfather died of one. I am focusing on stepmom's story right now. My friend made me tell her about it again this morning.
