Yesterday I observed a second grade classroom as part of some consulting work I'm doing. I was really reminded of how incredible it is to watch teachers' brains process about eleventy billion different inputs at the same time. It's the same feeling you get watching the Olympics - master of the craft

Still no Signatera results. Plus, I've had it in my head that my PET scan was Monday, when it's a WEEK from Monday. 🤦 The good news is I was prescribed pain meds, so at least I'll get some relief while I wait. Ask any cancer patient... the waiting is often the hardest part. Please send love. ❤️
