Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Congrats, Allyson!
I am home and exhausted. Niece news is not good. They have started weaning her off the sedation she has been on for the respirator, but her brain is still flatlining. It may be time to let her go, but there is still "a window" of hope according to the neurologist. I will know more tomorrow.
Oh, and thanks for all your good thouhhts, all. I don't need any brackets or hugs right now--I just wanted to post an update now that I'm home.

Gah. So very very sorry, Scrappy.

The status is NOT quo.
Best wishes to you and yours Scrappy. I'm very sorry.

Allyson, that's wonderful news! See, and you thought it was a no go...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, man, Scrappy. I'm sorry--that's awful.
I'm sitting here all pouty and cranky, and, now...well, also sobered. Everything is so very fragile.

Scrappy, I've been thinking of your niece and your family. I'm so sorry about all of this.

And I'm in a lousy lousy unsleepy mood.

Scrappy, that's so sad, about your niece. I'm so sorry.
YAY for the apartment, Allyson!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Scrappy, much ~ma to you and your niece.
Allyson, I'm so glad things worked out! And good on the landlady for giving you a break on the deposit for putting up with the confusion.

So very sorry your news isn't any better, Scrappy. My fingers remained crossed as they can be for her and all your family.
