My friend, whom I've known since teens has sepsis and pneumonia. The pneumonia isn't clearing well. There are nodules in her lungs that are probably from rheumatoid arthritis. They obscure the x-ray. She will have bronchoscopy tomorrow, and plan to do savage, a washing out of cells. Oh God, this sounds so suspicious of cancer. Her daughter called me. Calls each day. I told her my fear. She was thinking the same thing.

I feel like I did in May, when I waited to finally hear of my sister's cancer. It is hard to breathe. But when I can do so deeply, I will go outside, stand in the middle of the street and scream. Yell to the universe., to G-d, to that Great Nothingness, "No can't have them yet. I won't let you. No."
