I look more rad than Lutheranism

You know, I'm okay with the inevitability of death

I am, too. Except Ginger was supposed to be going home from the rehab center. This is not how her current hospital stay was supposed to turn out. That's what makes this extra worse for me. She was supposed to be going home, damn it.

Because books.

smonster, for what it's worth, I miss hearing your sleepy voice every morning.

I keep trying to put into words what this community means to me, and instead I keep getting this image of a woven quilt, in all of the colors ever, spread out around the world. We're both the quilt itself and sheltered underneath it. I hope Ginger can feel that.

Our wings are not tired.

Hope I was at the party, Sean. I used to have lots of party and gathering type dreams but not so much anymore. Need to direct my subconscious better.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

She was supposed to be going home, damn it.

Yes.

What I can't seem to accept is all the things Ginger (and ita and DH etc) still had to do. Specific things she was actively working towards except the damn electrolytes got out of balance and wouldn't go back. It's maddening.

Oh, Amy, that's lovely.

That is lovely, Amy.

Am here with y'all in heart and thoughts, even if it's with way fewer pixels than I'd wish.

Thanks, Zen. And Shir, for letting me know. And all y'all for you.

Kate, thank you for posting that. It was so apt.

Thank you for all of you, for holding a space for grief and for keeping vigil here.

Ginger, you are loved.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

Perfect, Amy.

brillig

This is not how her current hospital stay was supposed to turn out.

Yeah. Things can turn so fast, and your foot slips, and you can't catch on anything.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Amy- that is so beautiful. I wish I could draw, because I can just see the image in my mind so clearly.
