So that's heartening.

Did I mention we went to see Grandma on Sunday?  We went to see Grandma on Sunday and she looked amazing.  Not even 'amazing for a woman in her 80s who has cancer,' but animal-print-velour-sweater-wearing, be-lipsticked and coiffed amazing.  She's back in her apartment now, receiving visitors and phone calls from overseas and eating garlic sausage with impunity, because who's going to gainsay her now?  She's presiding like a queen over her court and loving the shit out of it.

Keep on keeping on, Grandma.
