Oh dear, jz- I hope it turns out to be some transient thing & not something super serious.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

Our wings are not tired.
JZ, good that they were there with her. Much health~ma sent her way. Scary!

Oh, no, JZ! Sending good vibes her way.

Now tagless for your comfort.
That's scary, JZ. Glad they are with her and that she's getting checked out.
My dad is still in the hospital, two weeks later. He was doing really well. We were planning on getting him to transition to a short therapy stay in a nursing home but the last two days he's faded--confused, tired, and his white count shot up. They are testing him for sepsis.

Oh, geez, Cash. Sending all good vibes his way.

I did leave the house this weekend -- to drive over a couple towns to pick up the new Naomi Novik novel at the public library there, since it was an Express Read and couldn't be ILL'd. Mine, all mine, for at least the weekend.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, Cash, how hard and frustrating! I hope they get a handle on it soon.
My mom is staying overnight for observation and getting a stress test tomorrow, but mostly just for everyone's peace of mind. All her initial tests looked good, so it may just have been vasovagal syncope (i.e., "We're not sure what happened but, even though it doesn't look serious, maybe go slower with moving from standing to sitting and have a little more potassium").

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Tons of health~ma for JZ's mother and Cash's dad.

Yes, parents should stop being sickly right now!!
I gave the dog a quick bath, and now he wants to snuggle me while he’s damp. Ick.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, goodness! Health~ma for Buffista parents all around.

Isn't that how it works? Post-bath zoomies followed by cuddles?
