Steph, I've gotten caught up on this and I'm so glad he got to the hospital and he's getting help.
Joyce: Dawn, you be good. Xander: We will. Just gonna play with some matches, run with scissors, take candy from some guy, I don't know his name.

He probably has alcoholic hepatitis, not one of the viral ones (A, B, C). Hepatitis is just inflammation of the liver.
Thanks for the link! You know, I don't think I realized (despite the "-itis") that it's just inflammation, and can have various causes. Dur.
God DAMN, he's fucking lucky it hasn't progressed to cirrhosis.

The hospital he's in really does allow dogs to visit, so his wife is taking their dog tomorrow. That's pretty cool.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You had a brain fart of love.
God DAMN, he's fucking lucky it hasn't progressed to cirrhosis.
Yeah, that was basically my reaction.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Wow, Steph. This is really a whirlwind, but an amazing whirlwind. It's none of it easy, but thank dog he has such momentum (and support--always support).

I bet they have terrific recovery records, as a result.
How wonderful. And what great news about his care and results.
If, god forbid, someone has to have such a crisis, it seems Bro-of-Tep did it right.

Teppy, I'm glad to hear that he has been admitted, and is settled in. And that they allow the dog to visit - that's just so . . . civilized.
Connie, lots of heart ~ma to your DH.
My daughter is sick, again, so I won't be going to work, again, tomorrow. I have to travel for work this weekend, so here's crossing my fingers that I don't get it.

UCLA Westwood has dogs sometimes, and the last time they did have one, they brought it by for the orderly that was standing outside my room, and didn't actually bring it in to me, the patient. It was kind of strange.
Well, she could have been psychic. It's not like I am the type to realise a benefit.
