One week ago today, my mom was diagnosed with cancer. She watched a few days earlier as the doctor performed her routine colonoscopy and found a whopper of a mass; 33 mm in size. Did you know you could watch your own colonoscopy? I sure didn’t, though it didn’t surprise me that she chose this option as she is Full Curiosity with a degree in biology. The closest I come to this is the hand mirror the dentist gives me to watch what’s happening in my mouth, which is the origin of the anus so maybe it all makes cyclical sense. We thought the cancer hadn’t spread but found out yesterday there are “suspicious” spots on her liver, thus instead of having surgery she is on her way to an MRI, biopsy, and possibly a few months of chemotherapy.
so beautiful and heart-provoking... this line made me gasp - "Because if Time was truly linear and if Memory was truly binary, then how can I harbor so many Multiple Futures and Competing Feelings at once?"

I owned a few of the same brand; Mom's Champion shirt fits like a glove.
Soft-flowing piece. You give careful, sifting pause every few sentences. The glass sculptures are neat. Thanks for introducing me to pronoia, and I hope you care for each other well, Trilety 💖
