We are all ready for her to be released. We are in no way ready for her to be gone.
All of you are surrounded by so much love.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
We are all ready for her to be released. We are in no way ready for her to be gone.
Well phrased. Been there a few times.
Sympathy. Empathy. Condolences.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, my dear ones.

Punishingly Intricate
I feel so privileged to “sit” with all of you (but, especially, David and family) at this time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Agreed, lisah. It's been feeling like a vigil and I hope it is supportive for you, David.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Agreed, lisah. It's been feeling like a vigil and I hope it is supportive for you, David.
Oh, it has been. Just writing the little tributes to her on FB feels good. All helping me move through this.

I’m glad we can be here for you, David. You and yours are never far from my thoughts.

My dad passed from kidney failure and he drifted peacefully away. I pray for the same peaceful passing for JZ.
Thinking of all the Zmayhems.

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
I was hoping against hope that JZ would have a different outcome than my uncle, but it’s been eerily the same once treatment stopped for the both of them. It’s so hard to watch them fade away when they were so vibrant before.
Thank you for sharing these moments with us, David. I hope you are feeling the love that surrounds you, JZ, and your families.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
So weird to be hoping for a friend to leave us as soon as her body allows. I have been having morbid humor "ascend already!" thoughts for a week or so, and feeling guilty (but also like she'd be amused) right after.
