Getting help

It can take awhile to get an appointment for a procedure at a busy big city hospital. 
I'm seeing that as a good thing at the moment, because even the best news is bad (leg amputation and likely death) so what's the rush in having a bone biopsy that will simply confirm what the X-ray shows. I have over a week of not being 100 percent sure. I'll take that.
Meanwhile, I will soon see a psychiatrist said to be an expert with people with the problems I have. I have some close friends but I've always lived alone, so I'm going to do this. I'm counting on his being liberal with pharmaceuticals that help alleviate depression and anxiety. I say that as someone who more believes in working things out in your mind, but there's no time for that now.

Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone watch a movie in La La Land.

I seek distraction. Happy things. I took La La Land out of my public library and watched it twice. Upbeat, happy, and I like the songs. The word "cancer" is spoken just once and the movie is more interested in life than death. It's so good to see a movie sometimes in which there are no guns and not even one punch is thrown.
Sneer at musicals for being unrealistic? If that's your issue, I assume you watch only unedited documentary footage.
