I took a nap and wasn't sure where I was when I woke up. That was a terrible moment of realizing where I was and that Kittenish was gone and my dad is now a thousand miles away with tumors in his head. This is pretty much some of the worst stuff I can imagine. And it's happening. She's really gone. He's really sick.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

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

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, honey. Much strength.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Oh, honey. I am so, so sorry.

Oh, Cass. What a shitty pile of reality to wake up to.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I'm so sorry, Cass. That's a lot to have to cope with.

Quite the Nature Channel we've had in here this weekend. All very interesting.

I talked to my father. This week he resumed radiation treatment. It went a LOT better. Apparently, it's SOP to also radiate the lymphnodes for 23-28 sessions. They 22 before the week off. The lymphnodes are close to the stuff from his operation 2 years ago (sorry, forget what he calls it), and was causing great pain and stomach discomfort. The doc feels the lymphnodes were radiated enough, so they aren't doing that anymore, just hitting the cancer. So this past week went a LOT better. He has two weeks of treatments left.
Also, when I called, my sister was over at his place. Hopefully that means progress on that front. But I'm guessing neither would speak candidly with the other sitting right there. But hey, the fact she is there is progress!
