Thanks, everyone. I'm ok--just tired from the car trip. My poor sister is completely wiped out. Her husband had pulled a double shift at work when he got the call from Scott's gf. So after spending all night at the hospital, the poor man was awake for two days straight.
I *just* got off the phone with my sister and they did take him off the respirator a few minutes ago. The first words out of his mouth were, "I'm so sorry, Mom."
I'm just glad he's young and strong. I hope he learns his lesson from this. He came very, very close to not making it.

Good thing. Sometimes, I wish family and friends could bottle all the fear, pain, and heartbreak they experience when a loved one is addicted, and somehow let the addict feel it first hand.

Yes. Please. Let this be the last lesson he needs on this front. Please.
I hope you hear more news soon, Emily.
Good news~ma, good news~ma, good news~ma.
At the Ren Fest yesterday, Andi and I saw someone wearing a "Joss Whedon is my master now" t-shirt.
Sadly, he gave no reaction when I shouted "Browncoat!" But then, I'm not sure even Daniel heard me.
"I love drugging my cats."
Sammie is apparently a bit of paranoid little nip-head. She's perched in the entertainment center, and leans away when I try to pet her. Harvey on the other hand just spent a good ten minutes standing on Dan's shoulder, meowing. I swear it sounded like he was saying, "I can fly, man, I can fly!"
Cash, I'm glad he's ok for now. Hope the ok-ness sticks.
Man, there is a fandom for everything.
It's not exactly "girlfriend in a coma," but it's close.
On top of it being sad, and scary, having so little information must be frustrating for you.
I'm kinda zen. It's so far away, and I have so little info, that I'm pretty separate from it. I was upset last night, but now I'm just waiting to hear.
(Dear Universe, Cashmere is setting a precedent here. Play along)
Yes. This.
I hope you hear good news soon, Emily.
Hugging all the Bitches close, and rubbing my magic crystal, just because.
Catching up...
Emily, I'm sorry about your grandmother. I hope you get good news soon.
Cass, rehab sometimes takes a few tries but I'm glad your BiL is out and I wish him the best of luck with his recovery--for his sake but also for his son's sake.
Cash, I'm so glad the news is good.
