Hating Judging Amy today

We watch reruns of Judging Amy here with some frequency. Embarrassing I know but there you have it. Anyway of the threads this week has been Vincent's girlfriend Carol is diagnosed with breast cancer. Saw that episode the other day. Today, she has left for SF (show's based in CT for those more evolved folks) and has found an oncologist. Now it's true that I missed some of the details from that episode. Today Vincent announces that her tests have uncovered some bad new - carcinoma in situ, blah blah, radical mastectomy. Excuse me! Carcinoma in situ does not mean radical. My mother doesn't see an oncologist until after they do the surgery.

It was bad enough watching tv where pregnancy and birth are used as plot devices - I mean really, girlfriend threatens to shut the damn thing off, or cast me out of the house, but now breast cancer is going drive me bonkers too. I am not safe around women's programming, I tell ya!

(Shh - don't tell anyone, but it's the girlfriend who is distinctly a tomboy dyke who is really into the Judging Amy thang.)
