Time moves on, as it always does

Not terribly much new, though there is some good news. The territory claimed by the left lung is recognized to be greater than previously realized. Flynn's LHR is around 3.5, which sounds like a whole lot, when you think that originally it was estimated to be about .65. Of course, surviving right-side CDH is supposedly not linked to the lung-head ratio . . . but hey, more lung is better than less lung, yes?

Yes, that lung has a nub down at the end, unless it's a bit of right lung peeking out, which would be even better, I suppose. One doesn't know, exactly: we still haven't heard about the lung volume measured on the MRI. But all that changes day by day.

He is marinating in rolls of back fat, a pleasant image. Flynn's a chunk. No one has told Bonnie she has diabetes, so that is good too.
