vent

just need to vent somewhere, this is safest place

My best friend from college, beat leukemia in 20s, living with colon cancer now metastasized various places for over a decade, taking a turn for the worst. Tumors blocking intestines, in hospital supplementing nutrition to get her strong enough for surgery to put in bypasses. No real plan for treatment because she is off all charts for her cancer. There are no options that are known to work and no examples of patients still living with what she has. Her son in 16.

My son. Incommunicado. For over a week. Phone goes straight to voice mail and voice mail is full. Texts, no response. Including the one that said I was in hospital after hitting my head. Bank account showing largish deposits from cash app and then immediate withdrawls from atms. Today should have been a paycheck. No paycheck. Rent due on Monday and he has less than $100 in account. I've texted the one high school friend of his I have a phone # for and I reached out to another via IG. Bank activity shows me he is not dead, but WTEVERLOVINGGODDAMNF

vent over

I was working until 9 (comp time) so I am going to bed. no need for sympathetic words, or pats. I just need to dump that somewhere.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, msbelle. That is all a lot.

Oh, man, msbelle. Wishing your friend all kinds of good intervention outcome. And, of course, a mac check-in and more.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, msbelle. That is a whole lot.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Oh msbelle. That just sounds so hard.

Second post: I know this was on Facebook, but Jesse- I am now noticing all the Fanny packs worn as chest bags! They are everywhere! And thanks to Gar, I discovered that they are really great for those of us who struggle with coordination! So I think I am getting one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

msbelle, you know I would never hug you, but I am thinking of you and you can't stop me.

Also I did try putting my fanny pack over the shoulder and as I thought, found it very awkward to get things in and out of! And it weirdly hugged my one breast, which isn't even that big.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Last night was another one of those nights where Mr. S "can't"(read won't) sleep. It took until after 11 before he actually did fall asleep. He didn't get up until after 9, and today's been a decent day so far. I just wish he wasn't so resistant to trying to sleep.
