I noted your vain attempts to quarantine yourself from the plague ship the rest of the apartment has become.

Even the cats are sick :(

Coworker who I didn't know especially well but saw almost every day was killed by a hit and run while she was biking home on a (relatively) safe road right around the corner that is wide, rarely trafficked at the time of night she was biking, and has a dedicated bike lane.  No one has come forward and there were no witnesses or suspects.

We just had a tumor removed from our cat Angel's colon where it meets with the intestines. Test came back today, and the carcinoma has spread to her lymph nodes. She has maybe six months with no treatment, or six months to a year if she goes on chemo. One of the best indicators that a cat will respond well to treatment is body weight at the time they start, and of course hers is way under where it should be since she's been unable to digest food.

Welp. That's the end of that.

Today was a shit day.

Always sad to lose someone close to you. Even if they never talk.

I hear that. This isn't the sickest I've been, but it is some of the most tenacious shit I've had in years.

My mother has had a sinus infection for a few days and for some reason her lip started to swell up. She went to the doctor and they just said sudafed will take care of it. She goes into work at the hospital today and an hour or so later, the admit her to the ER. By the time I'm heading to work, she's getting x-rays and all kinds of scans.
I'm hearing nothing. I text her and she tells me to come pick up her jeep. So apparently she's going to be there overnight. Then she says she'll talk to me later she's heading into surgery. An hour and a half later, I finally get a hold of my brother and of course they are telling him everything. She got a staph infection in her nasal passages and will be in the home in a few days, cancelling our family Christmas this weekend.
Bad enough my mom was admitted to the hospital but people not telling me things really ruffled my feathers.





(Okay. And since I had a sinus infection for a few weeks, I was worried it was my fault. Turns out it's my brother's! As he picks at pimples and got two staph infections in the last few weeks and doesn't wash his hands very often. The guilt wasn't helping my situation.)

I'm like, the last person who should be giving this advice (though, if you ask me, I'm the only person who should be giving this advice! /solipsism)... but you shouldn't assume ultimate culpability all of the time.

I am actually starting to think there might be something wrong with me at the moment.

It sure doesn't feel good to discover some of your own flaws, but it's the first step toward growth.

RIP Grandma.

It was about as clean a death as one could hope - she never quite woke up from the cranial surgery, and simply couldn't get herself back on before she fully exhausted herself.

Still. Inevitability sucks.
