Got my package, too, Lee. Love!
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

ita's thread
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Not javachik
Has an autopsy been done to find out why ita died? Is one going to be done?
Is there going to be a gathering in LA to remember ita and pay respects among our group?

The first is the business of her family and designees. Not the board. And none of them owe the board anything.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I feel very much as sarameg does, that it's their business, not the board's. ita's family has taken care of her remains.

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
None of us have a right to know anything about it. It doesn't change the fact that she is gone. Her family has remembered her life as they saw fit, and it is up to each of us to remember her the same way. If there is a gathering in the future, I'm sure it will be noted on the board for those who want to participate.
Long story short: I agree with sarameg and Burrell.

Our wings are not tired.
I understand well the urge to know why, particularly when we watched ita suffer for such a long time. But of course the family privacy is to be respected.
It is my understanding that a July Buffista gathering is being considered.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I feel a towering resentment against the medical community who refused to treat, or treat adequately, someone who desperately needed help. And from that perspective I have that urge to know why Laura mentioned. I want to hope that ita's experience could call the community to task, and cause a change in attitude and willingness to treat sufferers with no or few other options.
That's the only reason I would want to know. But that, too, is her family's to pursue or not. We can only support them in whatever decisions they make.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
I think curiosity is natural, especially considering what ita had shared with us about her medical history and all the horrible care she received. But as so many wise folks have noted, that is now in the hands of the family to share or not. Which I completely respect.
There have been so many times I want to come here to read her opinion on a show or pictures, especially Aquaman, before I remember. And then my heart breaks again.
