G's diagnosis is cancer. She'll see a surgeon next week to develop a plan of action. The scene at the band lockers just now when the group of girls who hang together found out was not good. Many teenage girls in tears. G, however, is putting on a very brave front, determined to fight and beat it.
Hope and prayers to your daughter's friend. I do data entry for the American Cancer Society and when I see those quite young who have cancer diagnoses, it breaks my heart...but I just try to keep the faith that they will be ok and everything will work out.

Today was T's funeral and it's tearing me apart that I was all the way across the country when I wanted nothing more than to be with my other friends back east. I know all that stuff I said about her deserving a rest after such a long fight and that I'm still thankful for the small miracle of having her longer. Waking up from a coma was huge and quite frankly, living for 3 months when the doctors gave you 24 hours is downright badass. All of that is still true. But the fact that she's gone is finally starting to sink in and I'm really struggling right now. I couldn't be there, so I just took a quiet moment this afternoon to say goodbye. And that really hurt.
