“She’s living. She’s alive. But if she were to plateau today, and this was as far as she gets, it would not be nearly the quality of life she had before,” Carusone said. “There’s no comparison. All that we can hope for is that she won’t plateau today and that she’ll keep going and that when she does plateau it will be at a place far away from here.”

Cold dose of reality.

I wish her well and a full recovery, no matter how long it takes. That’s far more important than her House seat.
