Much ~ma to you and your family.

And fuck cancer. Because it can't be said often enough.

Annabel asked me what I was doing, and I said I was sending my good wishes to a friend whose daddy is very sick. She said she wants to write some words, so here are Annabel's words:

vcvfrewewamvcxszayhgtedsseryygbbhmnj annabel do it

I asked her what the first part meant, and she said she was telling the doctors and Jesus to help my friend's daddy. (She can type Annabel all on her own, but she asked me how to write "do it.")

Drew, you all are very much in my thoughts.

I'm poking my head in here to give punctuation to Noise Design, becaue this is where he hangs out. ((Noisedeign and family))

Oh, fuck, Drew. I'm so glad you were able to get a flight, and may he hang on until you get there. My love to you and yours.

What Plei said, for she is far more articulate than I am right now. Drew, you and your family are in my thoughts.

Awww. Sweet girl!

Thank you, everyone, for giving Drew so much love and support. He's in the air right now, but I know he is deeply grateful for everything.

He decided he didn't want me to come back with him today, so I am waiting to hear how things go this weekend. I may be on a flight tomorrow or Monday depending on the news. I know the meltdown will happen eventually--how could it not?--and I want to be there to hold my dearest love when he needs to be held.

In happier news, I am at Jon B. and FAQWife's beautiful Somerville house and will be heading over to dinner with the other localistas in a little bit. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone tonight.

Damn' allergies.

{{{Drew}}} all kinds of ~ma to you and your family.

Drew, my thoughts are with you and your family.

Localistas, please add a few extra hugs for Kristin. And Kristin pass them along to Drew when you get back. I'm so sorry that your time off together was interrupted with such tragedy. Peace and strength wishes for both of you.
