    I’m not who you were replying to, but I just want to wish you the absolute best of luck in your health battle. Empathy is in short supply at the best of times, but showing empathy when you’re in the middle of something so hard is next level. I bet you also make an excellent pizza, even if that’s not where you expected to be working.

    I’ll have my fingers crossed for you, friend. Fuck cancer and everything that it entails.

      Cheers, mate. I hope for the best for all of us. It can happen to any of us at any time, and that’s part of why it’s so stressful. Making good money isn’t some sort of panacea against your life falling apart.

      I mean, Christ, just think of all the people who have chronic pain that became opiate addicts who also had real, productive jobs who ended up on the street due to addiction to the solution to their chronic pain. Life isn’t fair, and even having money saved away can’t protect you from everything.
