We are all ready for her to be released. We are in no way ready for her to be gone.
Very much this. Love to you all.
Every nightmare I have that doesn't revolve around academic failure or public nudity is about that thing. In fact, once I dreamt that it attacked me while I was late for a test and naked.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Love to all of you there as you surround JZ with your care and love for her. As someone said above, it is a privilege to be able to sit vigil with you all in this heartbreaking, infuriating, tender time.
The part of me that lives here in this place with you all is very much at the front of my days right now. I'm here even when I'm not. And I'm here a lot.

This is the perfect way to express it.
We are all holding all of you in our hearts. This is a vigil.

I'm still pissed that she won't get to see any more Our Flag Means Death. It's a stupid, small, heartbreaking thing.
I just saw it trending on Twitter, and my first thought was "This is for JZ."

OFMD, is next up in our queue after we finish Reservation Dogs, and I’m angry I won’t be able to talk to Jacqueline about it, and I have had similar feelings about other Buffistas we’ve lost as have already been mentioned here. I couldn’t deal with watching Teen Wolf after it’s passed, because it wasn’t any fun if I couldn’t post with her about it later.
Today is our annual let’s get rid of all the broken things, toys ltc has outgrown, and random things like Happy Meal boxes that she hoards. I have so far cleaned out ltc’s closet, and dresser. Put, everything away nice and neat, and made a big bag of clothes for Stitch. TCG is taking down the spare bed that almost never gets used to make more room for craft supplies and bookcases. And I have reorganized all of ltc’s jewelry, hair ties, etc in the hopes that Iif everything has a place it will actually get put away and also hoping that if ltc can actually see what she has she can put it to better use. Now, I’m going to collapse on my bed for a half hour before we pick up ltc from school.

This is me, 100%

ltc read a book that upset her at school about a kid falling and knocking out her teeth, and then she fell leaving the school and burst into tears the minute she got in the car.

Compassionately intolerant
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.
Plei and I are sharing a brain.
I feel marginally guilty that I am checking FB and the Board while I'm in session these days. My focus is generally pretty laser, but I'm distracted.
One of my favorite people asked about Jacqueline today and it was such a relief to be able to come check for David's name here while we were together on Zoom.
I only have two appointments between now and Sunday, having just finished my 3pm. And, just now, a wave of sadness it hitting me. I cherish my philosophy, but it cannot stand against the pain in my own heart and the experience of pain in our community.
