“Not dead yet!”

Guys, can I make a request for some ~ma? Lewis' uncle passed away yesterday afternoon-- it wasn't unexpected (he'd been battling leukemia for nearly four years) and it was peaceful, but still, it's the loss of a husband of nearly fifty years and a brother and a father and grandfather and I just want for the family to be able to get through the next few days in particular with as much peace as possible.

I'm requesting some ~ma for myself around 11:00 est time tomorrow. I'm taking my beloved, wonderful kitty Anna to be put to sleep. She's amazing and almost 20 years old but she's in kidney failure and her body is shutting down.

I know I'm doing the right thing, but it just...it's hard.

If I could get some health~ma for my father, please, I'd appreciate it. Also, some "don't make me hurt you and anyone who looks like you"~ma for whichever medical personnel took the order to discontinue his blood pressure meds and turned it into an order to double them? Yes, that would be useful, too.

move out and draw fire

I am back from the hospital after emergency gall bladder removal. Everything seems to be fine (once my husband took hostages and they did the surgery 36 hours after admitting me for emergency surgery and not letting me have any water...but I digress). However, a little coping~ma for my son, who is slightly panicked and working so hard to be good would be lovely.

Dad's recovery seems to have stalled, well below the healthy stage. If people could spare some continued recovery~ma, please, I'd appreciate it.

“Not dead yet!”

Well, going in for a uterine biopsy today-- it's mostly a precaution before deciding what options to take WRT the fibroids. Some ~ma that everything comes out clear will be appreciated.

ETA: Releases ~ma-- procedure went as well as could be expected. I'm uncomfortable, but I'll live.

Thrive to spite them

I need some ma for my Grandma E. After lunch she told my aunt "I don't feel good" and then laid her head down on the table and passed out. she's at the hospital in the ER they ruled out heart attack based on her EKG.

This is the same side of the family as my cousin who died last June. His mother is the aunt who was with Grandma E and they live together. My family really can't take another loss right now.
