My wife had nasty chemo for pancreatic cancer through most of 2020. (She looks very much like a survivor so far.)

Chemo is such a sorry excuse for medicine. It borders on being the current version of leaching. But it works for some portion of people who get it.

Chris Evert!

I watched Chrissy play as a very cute kid who could really play tennis. Then I watcher he as a 20-something, or older, who had become in my view one of the world's most beautiful, sexy women. I only saw her on TV, but loved her from afar.

Silly me.

Now she is showing the world another side. I love her for it.

I wish her well.
