First and I guess mostly, my dear mom has survived as stated above. It was a wild ride and there are some really good and still challenging days following her four surgeries, resection, 2 hips, and extensive node verification + 3 rounds of intense chemo workups. I am working to get her involved here eventually.

In any event, as her caregiver I have seen a lot. Following covid 19 whirling around it is like impossible to get in touch with old colleagues who from a research standpoint -I think have me on a sort of block or something odd. Literally cant find on socials etc. Like they hate my mom or something, lot of folks from China, obviously Wuhan etc.

I excelled and graduated the school of business and did the school of education creditwork for a MBA at SUNY Albany graduating well received. My colleagues benefit from their ed and I am not.

Mostly a word of caution for doing what is right if you find yourself like my mom or I.

    Congratulations to your mom 10 years is incredible. So many are just ditching social media all together. Just too much garbage and ai generated silliness . If you tried to reach me, it might be months before I even noticed.

    Thats a pretty good point, its difficult to reconcile kinda of mia teammembers and responsibility. On the flipside its also a really easy and quic way to express positives still.
