The status is NOT quo.

Thanks, all. I haven't slept in 28 hours and am a little incoherent, fair warning. My dad is acting fine today and is desperate to get out of the hospital. He had a TIA (mini-stroke), and it's likely not his first. He's also still having issues with his memory and getting confused, but he refuses to consider anything like moving into assisted living. I'm looking into some kind of home care part time. I don't know. It's all pretty overwhelming. He's not a good patient and gets really bent out of shape when I "lecture" him about things like decent nutrition (he subsists on cookies, mostly), and I'm trying really hard to be grateful for the fact he's still himself and knows me.

Sumi, really glad your lumpectomy went well.

{{Pix}} Parents really hate when you do the role reversal thing on them, and it is no picnic for the kid either! Good to hear that it wasn't more serious. I sincerely hope he agrees to work with you on an acceptable solution going forward.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Pix, that is rough. You already know there will not be a quick or easy resolution. Hang in there. Rest when you can. Take care of yourself, too.

Pix, best of luck for you in dealing with this. It's so hard.

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

Timelies all!

Ugh, gotta pack for our trip. I think I'll wait until Gary and Mr. S are out of the bedroom, so we're not tripping over each other.

Have a good trip, Sheryl. I'd tell you it was hot and miserable here, but apparently it is everywhere now!

Thank you, Laura!

Speaking of excellent dads, how's Brendan recovering from his surgery?

Argh. I put my antidepressant in a day by day pill thing so I don’t forget it. But what I did forget was that I ran out. So I got to today as the last day of the week, picked up the bottle, and went “oh crap”. Ok, nbd, I can get it at the pharmacy tomorrow afternoon if I call it in now. Then I look and realize I have no refills left. Damnit!!!
