Thrive to spite them

I'm not exactly sure but I accidentally triggered a massive anxiety attack for M. I know what led up to it but I'm not sure how we got from that to major anxiety attack and me being anywhere near him just makes it worse. But of course I want to go and help him but I can't.

Penny's medication came this afternoon and there was some papers with it. I thought I had them all together and when I went to give Penny the meds (it's thyroid medicine that goes on her skin in her ear) and was looking for the dosage amount and couldn't find it. M was kind of helping me but he was also trying to play a game that is one of those where you can't pause and he was getting frustrated so I told him I would look later. And somehow me leaving upset him even more and then he just spiraled. I do know he forgot his anti anxiety meds when we went up to Mom's so that's part of it. I look at him and it hurts to see him so upset. Especially when it wasn't that long ago I would be in a similar situation. I am going to try to run some numbers and see if we could afford to get him on my insurance because I feel like that would get him better help than the VA is able to.

I am so sorry, Sophia. A terrible shock for your uncle, and you. Sending love and hugs.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm so sorry, Sophia.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

My condolences to you and your uncle, Sophia.

I go in for my experimental nanopulse heart ablation bright and early in the morning. Fingers crossed I get a cool super-power out of it!

Oh, Sophia, I am so sorry. What an awful shock and loss.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thank you. I am currently figuring out what to do with a giant purse of $17,000 in one dollar bills. But at least I have that.
