I'm sorry for what you are all going through, Gud.
Laura, I'm so sorry. What a horrible thing.

Oh, Laura, that is just so tragic. I'm so sorry. My heart goes out to your whole family.
Gud, continuing to wish all the best to you and yours.

Our wings are not tired.
Thank you all. It is such a nightmare for so many. The mother makes me stark raving mad. Not at all a surprise to me her reaction was 'he's 18, he can deal with it'. Um, no. We have all done incredibly stupid things in our youth, well maybe not all, but most. There is no excuse for this mess he is in, but he still needs help. Thank you for the support. It is just so awful.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Laura, that's terrible. Let's hope that it at least serves as a wake-up call for somebody.
Somebody should remind the mother of the old saying, "God helps those that help themselves."

Sorry about that nightmare of a situation, Laura.

I'm sorry, Laura. That's a nightmare situation.
Day 3 of no swim. Partly because I still suspect it would be a shitty, frustrating experience(haven't eaten much, chest still too tight, though getting better, and shit awful sinus headaches that make goggles seem like a torture device) and partly because I was working until just now. Work blew up spectacularly this afternoon. Why always late on a Friday?!!
So I feel gross and cranky and I have a ton of cleaning and planning to do this weekend. Hopefully I'll have the energy for it. And get back to the pool.
Uhg.

Timelies all!
I'm so sorry Laura.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh Laura. What a misery for all concerned. Positive thoughts for best possible outcome, and strength and comfort for all involved.
