Andi,
I saw your post. My guess would be months, not weeks (but I could be wrong about that). We have a family friend who had a really bad infection after a knee operation and it was months.
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Note: I think the meds he took did not have drastic side effects, but it was necessary to tackle that infection.
I am really relieved to hear that he is getting better.

Our wings are not tired.
If sex with 3 people is a threesome and sex with 2 people is a twosome, now I understand why they call you handsome.
HAHHSAHAHAHAHHAHA I am totally stealing that.
And I really, really hope Daniel is showing huge improvement super quickly.

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

I'm relieved to hear that Daniel is getting better. Continued ~ma to Daniel and Windsparrow.

not your mom's socks.
I've been following along but not saying much - just wanted to jump in and send more ~ma to Daniel and Windsparrow. I'm glad to hear Daniel is improving.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Oy, Daniel's body is all-in fighting off infections. My high school teacher/mentor developed Pseudo-obstruction (related to Crone's Disease) and had to be hospitalized a couple times with rampant infections related to his tubes. You don't realize how virulent they can be until you get the play by play describing how they had to kill off a bacterial infection and a fungal infection at the same time.
In happier news, Burrell you were on my mind all day today. (1) Because there were headlines on SF Gate today about (Pat) Burrell's last game with the Giants, and (2) walking to school this morning Matilda introduced me to "the new girl" who is your namesake.

Thanks Hec, that's sweet to hear.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Thanks, I know all your ~ma makes a big difference.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Thanks Hec, that's sweet to hear.
The actual stream of consciousness sequence went like this:
"Giants Celebrate Burrell's Last Game With Giants"
Aww, Burrell. Not with the Giants. Teaching.
Burrell and Mr. Burrell. Jane Austen. Love. Sideburns.
Burrell kidlets. {affection}
Later, going to school...
Matilda: "Daddy, that's the new girl."
Me:
[To the parents]
"Hi, I'm David. This is my daughter Matilda.
[To Matilda's classmate]
"What's your name?"
Matilda's Classmate: "[Burrell's Real Name]
Me:
[internally]
Awwww.
