Lots of gut-ma. I hope you feel better.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
HIPAA. That's a damned good point, there. Hmmm.
Gud, I have one doctor on my "side," and will be talking to the neurologist next week.
Uh, Anne. Can you drink tea or Gatorade or things like that?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I've got some ginger tea brewing right now. That's been helping immensely.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I have some papaya peppermint tea. Is that supposed to be oogy tummy fixing or immune system helping?
A friend bought it for me when I had a cold a while back and, while it doesn't really state *what* homeopathic effect it is supposed to have, it seems like it is more of a tummy thing than a cold thing.
I am not so much enjoying being a girl and stopping the queasy would be good. I put ginger tea (which is fabulous and I am glad it is helping you, Anne) on my shopping list but I don't have any now.

Peppermint is supposed to be good for tummy troubles, but ginger works better for me.
I'm also expecting the Communist Invasion any minute now, so life is looking really pleasant.

oh Anne, you have my sympathies! best wishes for food appealing to you soon!
Last week was Restaurant Week here (special deals on meals at purportedly nice restaurants) and several people have gotten sick - seemingly there's some kind of viral thingie going around.

St. Louis is being attacked by the communists? But it's nowhere near the Canadian border.

I had my mother bring me Jamaican teas one of the last times she visited. The down-home ginger stuff is good, and I need to make sure she keeps me in it. The funnest is the cinnamon, but I can't tell if it's caffeinated or not, so I forget to drink it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ease-ma of symptoms for Anne and Cass. Calli, I had not read The Grammarian's Daughters. Thank you for linking it. I have sent it to my writing group members and a couple of friends. It's a lovely story.

HIPAA. That's a damned good point, there. Hmmm.
Just something to think about. Or at least, threaten with.
Your privacy is battered enough in this day and age. Such an egregious violation cries out for an answer. Or, I dunno, a punch in the snoot.
