Fingers crossed for your sister, Burrell.
Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

~Ma for your sister, Burrell, and for you.
We never got Lucy to stop barking, either, but she definitely knew how to sit and all that.
This is a really dog-friendly town, and I see so many really well-behaved and trained dogs in town, as well as people bringing puppies out to properly socialize them.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
thanks ita, Lee & Amy. I'm not even sure which answer is best. I suspect discharge, except my sister is anxious about going home.

I airdry almost everything going on 5 years now.
So.. $7K for a new A/C. Not at all how I wanted to spent my savings.

information libertarian
Discharge with a wound like you described would be stressful, but I think staying in the hospital would be more stressful for me.
I am back at work after 3 weeks away and have like 50 emails, maybe, and half of them are "today's schedule changed, go look at it" which I can delete without reading. It's weird how little email this workplace generates, but on days like today I do not mind!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am sitting on the filter that just show's me my boss's emails. I can see the count from specific departments or "reply now!" people, but even the weekend makes me nervous to view my list as a whole. Hopefully getting off the mailing list of my old department will help.
I'm trying to update status reports, which is the thing at work I'm worst at, and I got distracted by Victoria Falls and the Devil's Swimming Pool. When I recover from that, it's to start shivering again. I cannot dress for the summer A/C here this year. Severe lack of focus so far.

Does this seem like something that should be sold in a hospital cafeteria?
Bourbon Street Pecan Pie $3.75
Mammoth toasted pecan halves in an intoxicating filling, laced with Kentucky Bourbon.
I think it is the "laced" that puts it over the edge.

I think it's probably something every hospital cafeteria should have, honestly.

Good luck to your sister, Burrell. I hope everything goes well.
But yes, it's incredibly helpful having a doctor in the family.
