sing, o barren one who did not bear; burst into song and shout, you who have not been in labor! for the children of the desolate woman will be more than the children of her that is married, says the lord. enlarge the site of your tent, and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out; do not hold back; lengthen your cords and strengthen your stakes. for you will spread out to the right and to the left... and your decendants will settle the desolate towns. isaiah 54:1-3
it's bad news, but it's good bad news. my sister in law has dcis (ductal carcinoma in situ) -- it means the cells lining the ducts are involved, rather than the breast tissue/glands themselves. as i understand it, this is a "better" tumor to have, if one has to have any at all. the prognosis with radiation is very good.

Bad good news indeed. I'll be thinking of you and your family and hoping for a quick and relatively easy road to recovery.
Best wishes for her - it'd be nice if we could control when/if stuff like this gets put on our to-do list, eh? I'm glad that the prognosis is good...
