Uncle will try and do that tomorrow. I don't know how much doc's are allowed to talk about a patients record over the phone with someone they don't know.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

That's true. Wasn't thinking...

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
omnis, it's great to hear about your dad improving.
have your mother talk to her. After all, she's the reason why you're not inviting him right?
It's a bit complicated. I don't want to put her under that pressure, as her relationship with my grandmother is strained. (My grandmother is a very difficult person - I get on with her fine, but my mum doesn't). And it's not really because of my mum that I'm not inviting my uncle - I don't like him much either (my family is chock full of 'difficult' people) and I haven't seen him in 15 years. Although that will change soon because my grandmother wants him to meet The Girl. I don't quite understand why.
I might give up and invite him. I need to discuss with The Girl first, though. Setting precedent on inviting people we don't really want there could be a bad idea.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Perkins, I'll take the red one if it is still available.
Yay, Seattle! TCG and I loved it there.

My head is going to explode. My priest went on about the statistics involved in pancreatic cancer (nice bedside manner there, Father), while about four different people either asked what's "wrong" with me* or said how "good" it was that I was on crutches rather than in a wheelchair. Seriously. I'm sure church is meant to be encouraging in times of stress, rather than the cause of splodey brain.
I will now eat leftover Irish stew for lunch. That will be cheering.
*Answer I wish I could give to this question: "I'm a lazy, whiny bitch who eats too much chocolate. What's wrong with you?" Alas, I am rarely bold enough.

That is a gorgeous house, Barb, in a gorgeous area. I hope everything comes together for you on your move.

Seska, I've btdt. I stopped going to Spina Bifida events because I was sick of hearing how lucky I am. Sorry you had to deal with that on top of everything else.
