I love how that all came together and how the merchants focused on their strengths (and unwittingly hit all the thoughts I had the other night! But organized!) It's community. One of my carrots moments is that I have community (not a Hampdenite, an Ednor Gardenia...long story.) And that's the best thing that's happened to me in the last decade. Never knew how important to me it was until I found it.

Arrgh! They had to stop her chemo again! The nurse had just begun the infusion (literally, as in, the orange dye hadn't even entered her PICC line yet, so only trace amounts of the chemo must have been in her system) when she went beet red and got disoriented and then said her chest felt tight. Ai yi yi!
So stopped the treatment and began running tests. If we are lucky, they will decide it wasn't the treatment, it was the tumor that caused the problem and they'll restart it tomorrow or the next day.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Burrell, I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how frustrating and scary this is for all of you.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, Burrell, how scary and frustrating.

What Cass said. Goodness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Y'all need some straightforwardness, man! Now! I mandate it, with my medical powers!

Yes, frustrating and scary is exactly right. Thanks for letting me vent here.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Frustrating and scary as hell.

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.
That does sound like a scary reaction, Burrell! I hope they get it figured out, fast.

Very frustrating and very scary. Hope they get it together.
