Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

Congrats! Welcome to the world and a fabulous family, Ford.

Completely separately, has anyone heard from Trudy? Her mom has been on my mind.

Welcome to the world, Ford! You're a sneaky one. I was waiting to hear news of you all day, and you arrive after I go out and forget my cellphone, and therefore the internet, at home.

Thrive to spite them

Steph - bladder spasms can happen with Interstitial Cystitis. I don't know the cause but I know that people with it have them.

There's also a good portion of people who have GI problems, like IBS along with IC. So there's a theory they are inter related somehow.

There's no clear cut test to say if you have IC or not but it's something you might want to explore with your doctors to, at the very least, rule it out as a cause of your problems.

Hey, Suzy and everyone else.

SO happy to hear about baby Ford.

No clue on what happens next with Step Mom. They lifted sedation and she got agitated to the point of messing with her tubes so they re-sedated her. They've got her heart rate stabilized. Once they de-intubate (outubate?) in the next day or so (pending her heart rate staying put I think) they'll lift sedation again.

I was with her this weekend un-sedated but its hard to say "conscious". If you say her name, she turns her head to you. Her eyes are usually rolled-back, not making contact. It's hard to tell what she's getting and what she's not. They say there are no signs of brain damage with the tests they've been able to do. She'll raise her hand, but when I hold it she doesn't grasp. This freaks Dad and me out similarly.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Welcome new baby Ford!

"Hey, you sass that hoopy Ford Prefect? There's a frood who really knows where his towel is."

I had a Toastmasters meeting last night. One of the speakers gave a speech on the life of Douglas Adams. (I told him afterwards that he should've given the speech holding a towel.)

Yeah, that's not comforting. I hope she shows signs of improvement soon, Trudy.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

How hard, Trudy. Some of her actions sound like they could be the result of the sedation, esp if they are giving her propofol. I hope she regains consciousness soon.
