much ~ma, Connie.
Angel: I appreciate you guys looking out for Connor all summer. It's just—he's confused. He needs time. That's all. Fred: Right. Time, and some corporal punishment with a large heavy mallet. Not that I'm bitter.

[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.

It's nothing serious ~ma to your Hubby, Connie. I'm sorry you're left worrying until he comes home. Not knowing is the worst.

Tons of health~ma for your hubby, Connie.
========== Sean, the hardest part is starting. Inertia/momentum, what ever you want to call it. Once you have some, it does get easier. Keep your chin up. Don't give up. Hope is a powerful thing. You have a room full of people here who believe in you. And like Pix says, we are here to help.
As you make your walks around, and inquiries, it might be a good idea to keep a log, of who you talked to, what date, and what business.

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.
Health~ma for Niki and for Connie's DH.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Sean, what they all said. I have a GED too, and I have always treated it like a high school diploma. Speaking as someone who works in hiring, for many, many jobs college is less important than experience and intelligence.

He just came home.
Lymphoma. All through his torso. 14 "bright spots that really got their attention" and "lots of little ones."
We see the surgeon for the consult for when to do the biopsy on Tuesday. If I get one jot of pushback on taking time off from work, there will be words.
he's been having this pain and trying to deal with it for nearly 2 years. One of the treatments he got gave him some relief, and he was told "If this help, then it's not cancer," and they gave him that treatment because the test would have cost thousands out of pocket. Though he's on Medicare for a fucking reason! But anyway. He apparently heard the wolf howl in my brain, because he asked me not to blame the doctors.
This is supposed to be very responsive to chemo, and he's had two bouts of cancer already in his life. And he's a mutant (truly, his body does not respond to things typically). People survive this stuff all the time.
Look, pyramids.

And he's far more worried about me.

The status is NOT quo.
Oh Connie. I'm so sorry. We are here for you.

Oh Connie, how hard. I hope it all goes as well as it can.
