Why does it feel like every day brings something to worry about...

Ugh. I wish I could lie down with a lot of blankets and sleep.

So sorry to hear about your nephew, I hope it’s the curable kind. There’s a lot of cancer. In the families that both my nephews married into but so far the cancer was treated well. There’s been breast, throat and kidney cancer and all of them are doing well. I hope the same for your nephew.
