This is probably a good time to mention that Lower Decks is what got my wife and I through her cancer diagnosis and treatment. I'm sure we watched season 1 and 2 a dozen times each.
I've been meaning to write a letter to the Lower Decks team to thank them.
It always used to make her laugh when Rutherford said "Implant stuff!" because it meant something similar for her.
This has been a PSA to hug your families. You never know how much time you have with them. She was 34.
Oof. My mom got cancer 3 times over the course of something like 15 years. She always hid it and I had to find out in roundabout ways.
Second time was a different from the first one, but the third one was metastasis. She lived two years after the last diagnostics, which I only found about after her death.
I lived in a different continent and felt robbed of the opportunity to be closer to her because of her secrecy. I guess she didn't want me jeopardize my career to be with her. I could have dealt with a higher level of risk, mom.
I'm so sorry for your loss friend. I can absolutely understand. My wife and I didn't talk much about end-of-life care or what to do when she's gone, I think largely because she knew how hard it was for me and she wanted to avoid causing me more pain. So we lived a lot in the moment, but I wish I had been stronger.
