My grandmother has confirmed with me that she has Ovarian cancer. They can't operate because it's too small or too far along or spreading. My uncle called me so now I'm totally not sure what's the case, only that she has the ovarian cancer and that she's going to have chemo/radition therapy. I'm totally freaked out and depressed.

It's a strange Christmas greeting, but I'm in that kind of mood. Tomorrow I will be at work. Sadly I must say that I will have much of their bitterness directed toward me.

Hoshi has surgery next week Thursday. I have to have her fast for 8 hours. I am very worried..She has an ovarian cyst and they decided a hysterectomy would be best to ensure no more cysts and no cancer in the future. It's a costly procedure.. I hope things work out.

Just update here for you live journalers.. Vox is pretty nice. I can upload large amount of photos just by highlighting them and pressing publish to web. It's made it easier to share my photos. Hopefully I'll get some even more interesting photos in the next several days as I'll be traveling with my dad:)

Right now I'm in Korea. I'll update tonight when I've come back.

I will put my pictures at vox for their easier photo hosting. It'll be a smooth shot to update my photoblog type of thing.
