    It f cks you when it gets cancerous. Not very forgiving.

    We need WW here for some bedside comforting.

    That is one tough woman, though.

      On the Kim Davis note, the administration has filed legal briefs asking SCOTUS to discriminate on sexual orientation and being transgender.

      October 8 will be a telling day. And my community waits and prepares for the worst.

        It will not surprise me in the least if she is the first person in history to somehow kick pancreatic cancer's ***.

          Not sure I have much to say on the comforting side of things. With the minimal details that are available and the caveat that my specialty is not oncology...

          It really depends on the type of tumor. I do not think we know at this point if it is a primary pancreatic malignancy vs a metastasis. Generalizing a bit, a metastasis probably has a better outcome than a primary pancreatic tumor (the pancreas is that important). It worries me that they had to stent her bile duct, which indicates it was a large enough mass to cause local compression.

          Then again she has beat pancreatic cancer before...so if it is a recurrence of that it is always harder to treat a second time but the fact she beat it once would indicate it might be less aggressive.

          Overall, having **** wrong with your pancreas is a pretty rough time and I struggle to think of another organ I would want a tumor on less.

          Make it to 2020...

                This is the lawyer in me, but that's not 100% accurate. They're not asking for SCOTUS to discriminate, they're asking SCOTUS to say that the provisions of the federal civil rights act which bars gender discrimination does not cover sexual orientation or gender identity.

                Honestly, it's always been an awkward workaround given that most states which cover sexual orientation and gender identity do so explicitly, so the fact that federally you have to stretch the limits of definition of gender to encompass those categories by saying it's effectively discriminating based on gender norms has always been a bit of a reach.

                The simple fix would just be for Congress to add those categories explicitly to the federal law. But yes, I know, good luck getting that through Moscow Mitch and the Republican Senate.

                      My favorite part is to reinforce their argument they quoted his own dissent in Obergefell.

                      It matters to this extent: Roberts, like Scalia, likes to kid himself that he's not a stooge. This demonstrates to the world that we're not buying it. Everybody knows Kavanaugh, Thomas, and Alito are jokes, but Roberts and Gorsuch think of themselves as real jurists. To be called on their bullsh-t so publicly has to sting.

                              Legal standing? Impact? I assume an amicus brief carries more weight than a simple speech on the Senate floor.
                              What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

                                Cause, if it's filed like this it goes in the Judicial Record and sticks it right up Roberts ***. That's why.
