    I remembered it vaguely from high school so I knew it was bad, just not the specifics! And yeah, maybe that’s the real story of loss: they had partial monosomy, resulting in cancer (or whatever the OG meme comic was ultimately about, haha)

      I played with squishy things (biochem, microbiology) back in uni. I always enjoy getting a chance to dust off that knowledge. I think that the original comic was about a miscarriage/failed pregnancy.
