Just got a bad phone call.
The woman who has been helping as a caregiver with my mom 5 days a week for the past few years was in a near fatal car accident last night. Questionable if she will ever walk again.
Ugh.
Mal: Cut it out. Job's not done until we're back on Serenity. Zoe: Sorry, sir. Didn't mean to enjoy the moment.
'Ariel'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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.
Well, shit, Drew. Much ~ma for her healing. And plenty of ~ma for finding your mother a caregiver.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Oh, that's terrible.

I don't know if it was here or in Natter, because searches for "javachik" yielded nothing, but Cass, I am sooooo excited about your friend getting a Qutenza script. Please keep me posted!
(sometimes I search for the misspelled "javachiCk", too but that got me no Cass results, either.)

“Not dead yet!”
Oh, ND, I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope the outcome improves as things stabilize.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Oh Drew I hope the caregiver makes a miraculous recovery.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm so sorry, ND! That's awful.

ND, I'm so sorry to hear that.
~ma to you all.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Amusingly, I have no idea what thread it was in either.
I was happy that her doctor brought it up. Now to gently nag her to fill it and then use it.
I will totally keep you posted. It's awful watching her wear sleeveless shirts in winter because her one arm is just so painful all of the time if anything is near it.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
ND, how awful! I'm so sorry.
