Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

Pix, I don't think you're semi-hysterical at all. I think, considering all of what's going on (and the things that you're probably not telling), that you're being very proper, and fair and polite.
I have no idea how I'd act in your situation, but I have the feeling that it would involve a lot more of swearing and breakdowns.

Thinking of you and ND, Kristin. We're here for you.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Kristin, if there's anything I can do for you and/or Drew, please let me know. You've got massively good vibes headed your way, but if you want to talk my cell is on. So much love to the both of you.

If anyone knows an anti-hiccup magic spell, please cast it. Poor Drew is still miserably hiccuping as he tries to sleep. And they have him on Thorazine to treat the hiccups, which freaks me right out.

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.
I'm sorry to have gotten semi-hysterical.
An entirely rational reaction to what's going on, so nothing to be sorry about. As for the hiccups, I think there are acupressure points that might help. I'll see if I can find a description for you.

Ok, from [link] points called Abdominal Sorrow
Location: On the lower edge of the rib cage (at the junction of the ninth rib cartilage to the eighth rib), one-half inch in from the nipple line. Benefits: Relieves hiccups, indigestion, appetite imbalances, abdominal cramps, and ulcer pain.
You gently press the spot on each side at the same time - this one that has worked for me, though there are others suggested at that page.

Yep, I actually tried some of these with him, but it hasn't helped. His diaphragm is being irritated by the inflammation of his pancreas, so I suspect they are especially difficult to treat. Sigh. Thank you, though. It was a great idea.

Sorry, Kristin - the only thing that helped me sometimes with hiccups is drinking from the opposite side of the glass, but I see it's not an option here.
