Lots of ~ma, ita. I hope your mom's surgery goes ok and her recovery is quick and complete.
We're taking a moment ... and we're done.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm feeling pretty cry-hungover all the time these days, whether or not I actually cry.
Great. Pharmacy is out of stock of pain meds. Now I have to convince another location to fill it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
ita, I'm so glad you're getting to go. It will be comforting to be closer, even if you still aren't able to *do* anything to influence the outcome. Just being close will help.
I try not to either because it sets off a chain reaction. I find a secluded corner and let enough out to get through the next period of time.
Exactly this. And also,
This board is where I give myself permission to cry and rant and rave.
Maria says it. You know we're here, and we've got you, whatever you need to offload. We can take it, and we want to.
All best possible wishes for your mom, your family, and you.

Our wings are not tired.
Cry in the shower. It gets it out and you are all wet anyway.

Lots and lots of ~ma to your mum, you and your family ita !
I'm a cry in the shower type, myself. Turn the water a little cooler than normal, and let the water rinse everything away including the negative feelings. At least for a little while.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Go in the water and cry into the ocean. I'm not a big crier, but I like to cry in the shower -- water seems to help.
And if you need to cry, dammit, cry. Cry, get drunk, punch and kick at the sand, layover in KC and hit me -- there's no rules for sadness, anger and worry.
If I had leftover pain pills, I swear I'd overnight them to you.

Yep, most, if not all banks, close for Columbus Day.
