Fucking shingles! I hope it is not too bad.
You have the emotional maturity of a blueberry scone.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks. I think it's not too bad. Your vibes are appreciated.

I am opposed to all illness right now. Down with illness.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Well, literature seems to indicate that could mean lessening of severity and duration, so that's good.
Oh, JenP! I hope the literature is right! I need to get my 2nd shot.

Seconded, Pix.

Oh no, JenP! Speedy recovery.
Is this something you can share with us, Shir? Or can I send you money to send along to them?
That is very generous. Thank you. For now it's collecting money via platform that requires an Israeli credit card and ID (its name is Paybox) but I'd be happy to transfer any funds on your behalf. Send me an email and I'll give you the details.

Ugh, shingles! Hope having the vax helps.

Hi. As Hec pointed out in another place, time doesn't exist in hospitals. I've been here almost two weeks (aside from the 12 hours I spent in LA before rushing back), and I am averaging 70 hours a week here. We aren't next to a window, so that makes it even harder to tell if time is passing. I feel like I'm going to be here forever. BUT, in one #win, I did finally get the charge nurse to agree to move Dad over to the other bed now that the guy next to us has been discharged. That bed has a window and a working TV. Small victories. The window looks onto a moldy roof, but at least it has natural light.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Any more iguanas for entertainment?

Alas, no. Apparently, the second floor is much less exciting than the fifth floor for iguanas. There is a stern sign on the cafeteria patio telling everyone not to feed them, however.
