Tuesday, Again
Jan. 31st, 2012 06:11 pmBeautiful weather today, very un-January-like. Still grinding through the zappity-doo-dahs; this afternoon there was an ambulance pulled up in front of the clinic. I didn't ask why -- my assumption was that someone either had a heart attack or a very bad reaction to a chemo session (or, y'know, both). Just another day in oncology-land.
Which brings me to this -- Susan G. Komen responds to Republican fishing expedition by cutting funds to Planned Parenthood. Here's the coverage by Jezebel, and a short piece from the Washington Post. For shame. Really, for shame. Cancer doesn't care if you're pro-choice or to the right of Attila the Hun; it'll kill you just as dead if you're rich or if you're the person who's been out of work for a year and can't get a mammogram because your local Planned Parenthood clinic doesn't offer them anymore. JFC. Shameful.
