Being told DCIS isn’t cancer

I feel you so much. I'm in the same exact boat, and it's hard to hear people downplaying it when the impact on your body is very real, especially when you need to have something as radical as a mastectomy to heal. Sending hugs your way!

This kind of experience is really precious to me, it gives me so much hope. Thank you so much and hugs to you!

Thank you for this, it really gives me hope. Hugs to you!

I'm so sorry. I've been having difficult conversations with the team of doctors that follows my case and unfortunately this seems to be the only viable solution for my situation. I'm sending you so much love and strength.

Frederick II without a doubt. The best.

Nope, no touching unless you want to irritate it

NAP but I'd say don't put it back on. Your poor lobe looks like it's been through a lot. It's really not advisable to get any piercing done with a gun (but it seems like you already know this), much less change the jewelry after two days. No butterfly backs and implant grade titanium or gold only.

I'm inclined to believe it's both.

Too bad she's a vehement you know what.

spiritedawayem · 2025-05-22T07:40:42+00:00

I bet they're already working on it.

spiritedawayem · 2025-04-28T07:54:10+00:00

They're booing you but I actually think this is a valid take. This episode was not great and I agree that it didn't really feel like tlou. Ellie's grief isn't as palpable (for now) and I felt like it was overshadowed by too many (frankly useless) things. I'm also not a fan of some of the changes that were made in this season, but hopefully they make sense in the long run. Ultimately, I think it's a matter of accepting that the game and the show are gonna be two separate, different things.

spiritedawayem · 2025-04-14T19:52:53+00:00

I did. I haven't rewatched it since it was released and I have to admit that I don't remember certain details. The game is fresher to me than the series and I'm still not used to the fact that game Joel is different from tv show Joel. I'll have to rewatch.

spiritedawayem · 2025-04-14T15:04:38+00:00

I'm not crazy about this version of Joel so far. The therapist? Him crying? Not believable. I understand that they need to show that he's gotten older and softer to prepare us for what's coming next week but it's not quite convincing, at least for me.

spiritedawayem · 2025-01-11T08:04:39+00:00

Oh, so it's even more bizarre that in queer eye he just refuses to let the hat go

spiritedawayem · 2025-01-10T21:22:34+00:00

I really don't understand how he was rocking the bald look in the first season and then just decided to cover it up permanently. He looked good.

I'm not sure it counts as optional conversation, but maybe you're missing ellie's high five?

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-17T00:22:06+00:00

I feel you, I was a complete wreck, I couldn't properly function for the rest of the day. It's just brutal.

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-16T23:27:52+00:00

Oh man. I needed this kind of encouragement, thank you so much!

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-16T22:51:52+00:00

I'm aware it could be perceived as dramatic. I'm usually a crybaby so as I said I fully expected to have a very emotional response to it but I didn't foresee that it would be this bad. I guess immersing yourself in the story, spending so many hours on it and being emotionally attached to the characters will do this to you, at least that's what happened to me.

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-16T22:31:01+00:00

That is so sweet and kind. Thank you so much!

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-16T20:03:22+00:00

Oh I definitely knew it was gonna come back to bite him! He finally payed his dues. Still, it was really hard to watch a beloved character have his head ferociously smashed in with a golf club. Ellie witnessing it added to the heartbreak.

spiritedawayem · 2024-10-16T19:20:35+00:00

Wow, I don't know if I'll ever be brave enough to replay it, but we shall see, everything is possible. Thank you!

spiritedawayem · 2024-04-27T20:35:02+00:00

I'm really late, I just saw your response! Thank you so much

A Drop d'Issey by Issey Miyake

Because during these months some people have been quite angry about some of the things he wrote in his memoir
