Much, much luck to your FSIL, P-C. Also very glad to hear Strix is alive.
Continued~ma to JZ and Matilda.
As for me, I'm trying not to scare new foreigner-friends that are emailing me because of news and they're not used to the stupidities of my country and its government and to my morbid sense of humor. So I'm trying very hard not to reply with "well, you know" and adding the YouTube link to Alice In Chain's We Die Young and such.
But dear God, I want to.
Edit: Oh. Vortex is wise.
Vortex said it all really, really, well.
Vortex said it well and much more tactfully than I would have.
She doesn't think they'll treat her poorly, but they have discussed leaving just in case.
She's really scared because she never thought this would happen, not until they had kids if at all. Like my parents, she'd given up hope.
She never thought she'd meet them? Damn.
What Vortex said. I suspect that they will not mistreat her, but that your brother will get an earful after the meeting.
Talked to Dad. His check up went well. The PSA test was 12 to start. Last week, it was down to 8. Will test again in December to see if it's dropped more.
Good to hear that, love. Crossing fingers for lower and lower test results in the future.
She's going to be writing a blog about her experiences. I gave her the title: Sari-Crossed Lovers.
I suspect that they will not mistreat her, but that your brother will get an earful after the meeting.
This is how it would be in my family. Luckily not my direct family, but my aunt would probably share notes with PC's parents. Luckily I'm her favorite niece, so I've never been in her direct fire but I've seen her in action. She can kill a person with kindness face to face, but will be brutal behind his/her back. She also holds a grudge like whoa. I think my dad and I are the only ones not in her cross hairs (though, really, she could be talking smack about us for all I know).
