Bahrain any escalation, the story will die quickly and we won’t need to come up with any further puns.
Ofsteve.
That’s cool! In California, the state senate is currently working on a bill to achieve 100% renewable energy by 2045. And tomorrow, Governor Brown is heading to China to discuss climate change, clean energy, and trade. The Trump crew can try to revert to the 1800's, but the rest of us are moving forward.
Oh, yeah, he’s definitely that petty (regarding 2). He’s THE spitting image of a petty tyrant.
Saarland, a teeny-tiny state in Germany, depended on coal-mining. But, going with the times, they closed all of their mines and got involved in renewable energy. Saarland has a booming economy now.
RE: the vest. Jared took it...
I am so, so incredibly sorry for your loss. A former college professor of mine lost her four year old son two years ago to the exact same type of brain tumor, and while they initially tried to seek out local experimental treatments with some hope, they eventually ended up making the same choice you did. I can’t even…
I just now came back to post because I immediately put down my phone and hugged my babies. Every moment is precious.
I’ve been thinking about this post all day. I can’t really find the right words, but thank you for sharing your story and insight, and I am so, so sorry for your loss.
I could never imagine having to make such a hard decision; though, if I do end up in your place, I hope that I have the strength to make the same decision.
I was on the fence about how I felt about this until I read your comment. It really made me realize that, as someone who has never and probably will never have to make this choice, I have truly no idea what it means to be a parent in this situation. You’ve shared your story with grace and dignity when you could have…
F*ck cancer. I’m so sorry. DIPG is the devil. Last week the HONY story about Max, told by his mom, came up in my FB memories and I lost it all over again looking at the pain on her face. That pain was what wrecked me at my friend’s son’s funeral (a different type of brain tumor). My next St. Baldrick’s donation will…
Also, he had two dads.
I, too, have had to choose to end my child’s life - in my case, to turn off the machines. In a week it will have been 17 years, and I still can’t think of it too closely. I share your pain, and I send you love.
This might be the most poignant thing I have read on this board.
I cannot imagine having to go through that. I’m glad you made it through that for your daughter.
This is one of the best comments I have ever read on Jezebel. You’re an amazing parent and my heart breaks for you.
Well I straight cried at this at my desk. <3
Thank you for sharing your story. Condolences
