Oh, Ginger. Such a wonderful person and such a fighter. Sending so many hugs and warm wishes.
Fuck cancer.
I would be there right now.

[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.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Much love to you, Ginger. I will miss you.

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.
I'm imaginging a puppy pile of us...

Met Seska and Wife. It was good. Now back at work.
I wish, so much, that there was anything that I could do other than sitting here, refreshing the board, and reading.

Yay. Hearing about buffistas spending time together irl always makes me smile.

For me, there is some comfort in knowing this is what we're all doing in times like this.

Oh, it is. I just wish there was something I could physically/mentally do to help. To cope better with the waiting.

Our wings are not tired.
smonster, I posted a picture on the Buffistas FB page and the full size picture shows that Ginger's huge grin is a result of watching your beautiful dance at the Atlanta F2F. Of course the memory also brought a big smile to mine.
It feels like the past few months Ginger has been more open in her discussions of her struggles with her health and the horrors of our medical system. To me it seems like she was trying to prepare us, or maybe herself and us. Just a feeling I had a couple weeks ago.

Always Anti-fascist!
In some ways, we haven't talked a lot recently, but we shared a hatred for being treated like a patient and for sentimental bull of all descriptions. I will think of her always when I read a science article, or when the anti-southern prejudice I grew up with flares up.She was funny and sharp, and when you "fuck" cancer next, spare a few for how this society treats people who are trying to get treated.(In some ways, that may almost be the bigger travesty.)
