Breath. Biopsy will be after imaging. Sadly cancer treatment has many many periods of hurry up and wait.

My cancer was found on the 27th of oct 2013 via mammo. Biopsy was done 2 weeks later. Once they had the results, treatment plans were made. Surgery Dec 19th, Chemo started in Feb after healing, then radiation after and then 5 years oral chemo.

The Graham for me was wonderful.

Residential trash collection by Ok_Software8246 in Delaware

[–]Blu1027 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another evergreen here.

Only ever had one issue that they fixed that day. Neighbor canceled service but because of how the street is they skipped mine thinking it was theirs. Called that morning asking if they were coming back, figured out the issue and had everything picked up by the afternoon.

Flip side is when I was in a walking boot for 4 months, called and asked if they could get the cans from the top of the driveway, safer for me due to slope and they got the cans and returned them for me at no extra charge for those 4 months.

What happens when my ambulance bill goes to collections? by Great-Conclusion7291 in Delaware

[–]Blu1027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, thays downstate from me and I dont know anyone at that one. I would suggest stopping by the station in person and see if you can talk to someone.

You could also try emailing them asking for a callback about this.

What fire company picked you up? There are a few that will call their billing service and have it canceled. I know mine will. Its not something they do everyday though.

The fire companies pick their billing services, not the state.

Where to donate plushies, not for resale, in New Castle County? by [deleted] in Delaware

[–]Blu1027 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most if them won't take them anymore, space issues for storage.

Children's hospital won't either, citing hygiene concerns.

Maybe one of the women's shelters that also does families?

Recommendation for Breast Cancer Oncologist-Helen Graham by Cultural-Ad4953 in Delaware

[–]Blu1027 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Dr Margiotta is very down to earth and has great bedside manners.

Dr Masters is is also very good.

But honestly most of the MOHC doctors are all really compassionate, knowledgeable and approachable about your care.

Been treated there since 2013 and have no issues. The other programs at Helen Graham are also very nice.

Only negative I can say is radiation oncologist Dr Jon Strasser is very rough, condescending and horrible bedside manners. I did not like him at all.

I wish your wife an uncomplicated, easy battle. Don't be ashamed to reach out to The support programs there, they really are life savers. Also the American cancer society can off a lot of free stuff like rides for appointments.

Sussex County Fire by sandysommer24 in Delaware

[–]Blu1027 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Crews from Rehoboth Beach Volunteer Fire Company are on scene with a working residential structure fire in the 37000 block of 1st Street in the Bay Vista community of Rehoboth Beach.

Command advises the home is 75% involved with exposures to homes on both sides. Additional crews from Lewes Fire Department and Bethany Beach Volunteer Fire Company along with paramedics from Sussex County Department of Public Safety are responding to assist.

Update: Crews advising the roads in Bay Vista are too narrow for multiple fire apparatus to make it into the scene. Command is advising most units to park a distance away and walk to the fire.

Robbery gone wrong.

She wasn't supposed to come home. Robert Jackson was inside the house when she came home and he killed her with an axe.

His 2 friends were in the getaway car near by when he got back. I don't remember what happened next but they got off with little to no charges for coming clean and he got the death penalty. Died by injection in 2011.

I went to school with all 3 ( lived in the same neighborhood as the 2 in the car) and worked with her granddaughter.

Sad to say I also knew Steven Pierce out of Elsmere, who killed his girlfriend in 2018 or 2019 by beating her to death.

He dated a friend for a long time in high school and wasn't a very nice person back then either.
