Thanks for the update, Sparky1.

Thanks, Sparky! Paws crossed.

Thanks, Sparky.

I spoke briefly with Bonny, as did Sox. She is in hospital for an infection that is being treated. Both our calls were interrupted by people (doctors/nurses/vampires) who needed her attention, so I don't have a full story, yet, nor do I know exactly what she needs.

If you drop me a line I will give you her contact information, however, I don't know that she's ready to be bombarded with calls, (see above about not having the full story), yet. I will ask her if there is someone specific she wants to speak to (Teppy, I'm looking at you as our walking, talking, but much better lookin' PDR), also, but I told her I'd call again in about 30 minutes.

Yay for having some news. I wish bonny did not have to go to the hospital, but since that is where she neede to be, I ave very relieved she is there. Lots of warm thoguhts and intentions headed your way, bonny.

sparky,

thank you for the update. I too was worried. will you let us know if there are ways we can be helpful?

Poor Bonny. I hope they can clear this bout up quickly.

Is anyone interested in some kind of emergency contact list of Buffista phone numbers and perhaps contact info for a friend or neighbor? I'm at my desk most of the time between 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. EST. I could coordinate with a West Coast person. If y'all think it's a good idea, I'll move this to Bureaucracy.

eta: Also, what le nubian said.

I like that idea. I think for a fair number of us (especially who are unpartnered or unroommated), we're probably better positioned here than many RL people to notice when something might be amiss.

Yeah, when I've been between roommates, I know it would be some time before someone noticed I was missing/dead/fallen over and can't get up. Since I work from home and all. They'd start emailing and wondering why I wasn't answering, but it would take a while.

I spoke with Bonny again, and she would appreciate your prayers/good thoughts. She's tired and frustrated but now seems to have a couple of doctors who are willing to explain to her what they're trying to do, and a couple of advocates to help her navigate the system. She will have to spend another night in the hospital. Cagney is in good hands.

Teppy, if you are around and have time, she would appreciate a call to ask you about some of the medications they're trying to drip into her. One of the most frustrating things for her is that she's not getting good explanations of why she's being prescribed things.

For anyone who would like to give her a call, my profile addy is good, and I will pass on contact info. I also have her snail mail/email address for those that want to send good wishes one of those routes. She does not have a charger at the hospital, so her wireless access is very limited.

I told her I would call her back this evening to check in and see how things were going.
