Blawg?






Honestly, I'm going through a rough time right now.

See, my sorta girlfriend was going to move up here from Baltimore in June. (at which point she'd stop being my sorta girlfriend and become my girlfriend) But, a week before the move, she was in a car accident that left her with a broken collar bone and some stitches. This was followed up with a freak run-in that broke a bone in her hand. Then, her niece had to undergo surgery to correct a problem she had when she was born with the bones in her skull already fused together. And to add insult to injury, she was diagnosed with inoperable brain cancer with a cluster of small tumors at the bottom of her brain and the top of the spinal cord.

She's undergone daily chemo/radiation therapy for over a month now only to find out it hasn't been helping much. She will have to undergo another surgery and more intense treatment...

And here I sit...eight hours away and completely helpless to do anything for her. Even if all I could do was hold her in my arms I'd feel I was doing some sort of good...

The pictures in this post are from my visit to Baltimore last summer. She took me to this place because she felt I would enjoy taking pictures there...
