Burrell, I am sorry to hear this, and wish a peaceful passing for your sister, and strength to you and your family. I'm glad you took this week off.
Much love to you.
Fred: It's the pictures in my mind that are getting me. It's like being stuck in a really bad movie with those Clockwork Orange clampy things on my eyeballs. Wesley: Why imagine? Reality's disturbing enough.

Oh yes. There were 2-3 big ass fish found in SoCal. The news in CA discussed this quite a bit in the last week. I did not know there was a connection to global events though. The news mentioned scientists were trying to figure out why the fish were here.
Here is the story:

Oh, Burrell. So much sympathy for you, and for her.
I'm so glad she's come to peace with it, of a sort. It's my biggest regret about my mother--between her mental health issues and her dementia, she was incapable of even beginning to process the idea of dying, and as a result she was panicky and terrified. I felt so bad for her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Burrell, I'm glad you had this week away from work.

Thinking of you all, Burrell.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm sorry, Burrell. I'm glad you're able to take the time off.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Burrell, so much sympathy for you, your sister, and your family.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Burrell, it's awful that it comes to this. But your sister does know she is well loved and well supported, and I guess there's not much more we can control until we work out a magic wand.
