Fred, I'm so sorry. It's always so hard, even when it's the most loving choice.
Saffron: But we've been wed. Aren't we to become one flesh? Mal: Well, no, uh... We're still two fleshes here, and I think that your flesh ought to sleep somewhere else.

Herding cats for fun
A cat like Coco is a great gift to the person he loves and to all the young ones who learned how to be a cat from him. Farewell, sweet one. You shall be fondly remembered.

Our wings are not tired.
Stubborn old coot step-dad drove himself 13 winding mountain miles to the health center because he was feeling poorly and they put his ass in an ambulance and are sending him 60 miles in the other direction. I mentioned that I live right next door and would take him to the doctor if he was feeling off. Anyway, some heart~ma his way would be good, along with some communication~ma.

Yikes Laura—my sister has had the same talk with my mom.
My dad is back in the hospital again (he had surgery last week, and they kept him extra because he didn't shake off the anasthesia well, apparently now he has an infection). This visit to them this week may be more timely than planned!

Sorry to hear that Fred.
msbelle, that sounds like it's going to be hair-raising in multiple ways. Good luck!
Who the hell shoots up a garlic festival!?!
I talked to Mom this morning, she's feeling better and the doctor told her the bacteria level is going down. The leg is still swollen as hell, so she's going to be there a while longer.
