You're the only one going through this now, Maria. The board is yours.
Anger is not a bad response at this point. You'll both be angry, because it's not fucking fair. Anger will get you further than acceptance.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Dude, the only thing I was using the board for today was to pontificate about Rafael Nadal's posterior. I think there's enough space here for whatever you need it for, Maria.

We are here for you, as long as you need us.

Maria - God. . . I am just so sorry and yeah - this board is totally here for you to say all the things you need to say so that you can be the person you need to be for your dh and your family.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I say that, AND I say that we will also continue to talk about the silliness and interesting things and whatnot that makes up our regular days. That way you won't feel like you've derailed us, and you can also have some distractions when you need it. But don't let that deter you, either, you speak up any moment you need to.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Crap. Maria, I am so sorry. It isn't just, there's nothing like justice involved.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Perkins, I may need to ask you and Ginger lots of questions about dealing with this. Please tell me when I overstep my bounds.
Oh, sweetie, anything you need, whenever.
Also, there are support groups for spouses of people with cancer. Would you like one of us to look into a DC group for you?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Here's a little silly for y'all. I'm sitting in the courtyard drinking and wearing my new hard hat.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
A girl sits in the courtyard in that hat, you know she's not afraid of anything. And she loves the shit out of America.

Hah! Take a picture.
Maria's muuuuch closer to me for work now, so if looking for groups, Towson, MD/N Baltimore or her home city.
