Birth, death, illness, new job, vacation...if it's happening to you and you want us to know about it, post it here. These threads are intended for announcements only. Want to offer sympathy or congratulations, or talk about anything? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
Tamara, so may sympathies to you and your family. I'm so sorry.

ND and I are likely going to be in the Boston area Saturday or Sunday evening...anyone still interested in meeting for dinner? Which day would work better?
Discussion in F2F...
(Also, Jon B., is your offer of a place to crash one of those nights still good? We could probably do either.)
I need some ~ma again. I'm flying back to San Diego tonigt. Please don't let my father die before I get there.
I could use some good biopsy test~ma for my dad, please. It could be a form of lymphoma resolved by an 8-week serious of shots. Or it could be non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, which would be much, much worse. We're really hoping for the former, and we'll get the biopsy results tomorrow.
Thank you for the biopsy~ma. Unfortunately, it looks like Dad does have non-Hodgkins lymphoma. I'll know more about the staging and prognosis tomorrow.
My good news isn't as good as the bad news has been bad, but we'll give it a try: I've got a new job.
It starts Monday. Its temp to perm (so the money will be eh at first) but it is with a firm that I very much wanted to work for and pretty much only hires tha way.
So Woo to the Hoo.
Dad passed away about 45 minutes ago.
Going darkish for 2 weeks in Canada. Back in August.
mr. flea is defending his dissertation this morning at 9. Passing ~ma would be greatly appreciated.
We'll also be going dark soon - probably tomorrow - because we're moving to Athens GA. Maybe up in grey (= poached slow wifi) by Saturday.
Another attack in Jerusalem: I'm fine.
Need some ~ma for my dad. He fell on the golf course on Saturday and hurt his knee. When he was at the doctor on Monday, he went to sit down and missed the chair, thereby twisting the other knee and hurting his shoulder. He's in good spirits and not too uncomfortable. He's going into surgery today, we'll know more later.
