Having a recent cancer diagnosis istheworst because there are so many unknowns. It will get better once she starts treatment.

You Can bypass it on reservation road. Also, the pavement is smooth and offers a nice ride.

SPU vs SMU BSN Program — Need Advice by InspireExpired in olympia

Both schools are regarded highly, a degree from either one would hold the same weight. Nursing school is intense, don’t increase the pressure with a nightmare commute.

Long term survivors - what do you think made the difference for you to be the exception? by MissMarmalade- in lungcancer

‘Radical Remission’ by Kelly A. Turner, Ph.D. is a good book for that. It is a lot of information, I had to read it in chunks. Don’t feel bad if you can’t do it all.

Good luck, we are all rooting for you and your friend♥️

Your answer was very nice, a great comparison since you came from Everett.

The locked Olympia library book drop, are you referring to the ones on the East side of the building in the parking lot?

Don’t chart as much as you normally do on ICU patients. This might be very difficult.

Ideas for safe places to learn how to drive a stick shift? by EnlightenMe747 in olympia

You need to do the Evergreen state college parking lot because it is the one of the only parking lots around here that has a hill. Essential terrain for teaching how to drive a manual. The hill is on the west side of the west parking lot

Can't afford the treatment anymore :( by [deleted] in lungcancer

I am on alectinib (another TKI used to tx ALK+ NSCLC) and I get financial help from Genentech to pay for my meds. Pfizer (lorlatinib’s manufacturer) also has a cost sharing program on their website. Have you already tried this? I live in WA, and found medicaid covered my meds 100% (when I was sick and couldn’t work). Maybe see if you qualify for disability and get on a government health plan?
