But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Joe's grandmother is getting moved to hospice ASAP. She's basically given up and will not be with us for much longer, we suspect.

So much love and comfort to you guys right now.

Thrive to spite them

Maria and Joe I'm so sorry.

Fucking fuckity fuck fucking FUCK day. I've now cycled back around the anger and wanting to rain down vengence and brimstone on everyone. Especially the fucking doctors who acted like fucking jerks to ita.

I don't want anyone to die or suffer or have to feel this gnawing pain.

I know how grief works but I also know that some time down the line I'm going to see pink gingham and start crying. Or someone one is going to make a blockbuster movie with a kickass herione where the actress can both act AND kickass without stunt doubles AND hold a gun well and I'm going to watch it and think NOW! You motherfuckers made this NOW! Why couldn't you have made this when ita could have appreciated it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Well, maybe it is, but...not...not ita. It's like Superman dying. It's not real, right? It's a gimmick, it's marketing, it's just to spark our interest again...

I'm waiting for the retcon.

Nods.

Perhaps the universe is getting all the year's tragedy out of the way now and the rest of the year will be easy.

What is even happening?

I'm so sorry, everyone. I've been here since Valerie called me this morning, but haven't been able to say anything. It wasn't real to me, until Allyson posted -- at which point it got all too real.

Paula, Burrell, Allyson, and Kristen, I'm sorry this nightmare has been extra vivid for you.I lost a cousin at the end of the summer and she was found by her mom. The loss itself was too much, never mind the discovery. Bless you for doing what you could for ita and for her family. Allyson, your post was beautiful and I am sure you did the very best anyone could do with ita's family.

Maria, Joe, and Aimee, I'm sorry for what you're going through.

shrift, bless you and your random quote generator. It's been saving my sanity for hours.

One thing before I leave, if someone already mentioned these people, I apologize for having missed the mentions. I'm wondering if Jen K, Ellen S, Kat Perez, Rio, and Heather (Daisy Jane) know. Take care, everyone.
