Dec 2018

pancreatic cancer, caught very early, was spotted on one her annual physicals. This time out, she breaks several ribs and catches these lung nodes while they're small and treatable. Both types of cancer can be deadly in advanced stages and by the time you have symptoms, it's often too late. My sister-in-law was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic (primary site) malignancy. The prognosis just isn't great.

So yes, I can believe the Universe isn't finished with RBG. Not just yet.
