Parents oldest son died yesterday. I'm surprisingly upset about it. I'm also angry because he's going to continue to be a rift between me and my family.
X-Post with Bitches: I just received a very nice gift from someone with the initials DS. I don't recognize the name, but I was thinking it is maybe a buffista whose real life name I'm unfamiliar with. If this was you, could you e-mail me at my profile address?
ltc just received an awesome tea dragon art print. Unfortunately the attached message seems to have cut off before naming the gifter. The message does mention the internet; so, I think it is probably a buffista. Whoever you are, we love it, and you are awesome!
So, yesterday, my mom, was working outside and fell and broke her hip.
Of course, she managed to pull herself up n the picnic table to wait to go to the hospital.
I spoke to her earlier, she is going in for surgery this afternoon.
Any vibes, prayers or ~ma is appreciated.
Mom​ update:
My sister​ reports that mom started having a couple of bouts with chest pain this morning after hip surgery yesterday, and was hurting all over, so she was transported by ambulance to Fargo for tests this afternoon.
My niece C reports that mom hasn't been found to have any new heart issues. The doctors think she was having a panic attack, but best to be sure with the heart surgery two years ago. C also reports that Mom is laughing and joking and 100% better than she was in Fergus Falls.
my friend and handyman needs health -ma and also someone to help him fight for his health care. Please spare a thought or prayer for him as you find most appropriate.
September 8th marks a year from my father-in-law's death. In his memory, the SO has started an event to replicate one of the things he used to do in secret. [link]
Head to your local grocery, find someone (or ask management) who seems like they could use a hand, and pay for twenty bucks of their grocery bill. More details at the Facebook event linked.
