I don't recall anything like that, though there was fan speculation that Dawn's presence or the memory reshuffling to shoehorn her into the Summers family was the cause of Joyce's problems.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
IIRC, the aneurysm that killed Joyce was sudden and no one even knew it was there.

It's entirely possible I watched too much Buffy on FX before work. It took them about two months to cycle through all the seasons and I watched those for a couple of years. Ummm.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sinead, who is "smallbeer" on LJ and DW both. movies_michelle on LJ has posted recs. Check the yuletide archive, because there are definitely some stories from this year, which I haven't had a chance to read yet.
