...please spare some. Daniel's cousin, Brian -- younger, just about my age -- is in the hospital, after having suffered two strokes and a heart attack. He is waiting for open heart surgery right now; chances he will survive this look... well, you can imagine.

Daniel is, naturally, freaking out a bit. Something of an understatement. I don't even know what to say.

Things are a little rough round here.

If you have any good thoughts to spare. You know.

Life seems so fragile right now.

Jesus christ. How do these things even happen?

The good news, such as it is, is that if he does survive, he's entirely young enough to make a full recovery (says the person who has had to learn waaaaaay too much about strokes lately).

I mean, really, right? What else could explain 4 of my close friends having autoimmune disorders, my friends and their loved ones getting the big C in their 20's and 30's and the insane amount of strokes happening to people we know in the last 6 months? I just-it's like I hear a horrible story EVERY DAY these days-and not in the news...in my circle of friends/extended circle! I remember when things like this would happen once or twice a year...I am just fucking puzzled and disarmed...!

I keep attributing it to getting older, but you guys are all way younger than me and this shit was not going on in my social circle when I was your age.

It is extremely fucking weird.

I too, have been trying to attribute it to growing older, but...

it just seems. Wrong. I dunno.

I am feeling very weird these days.

Thank you very much. It is greatly appreciated. *hugs*

Somehow it's always hard when it happens to people who are so young, I think. I feel worst for D's aunt, I think. I mean, watching something like this happen to your kid's got to be the worst thing ever, bar none.

Believe me; now I have children of my own, I understand that completely. Let's hope he's strong and will pull through without any long term ill effects. Clearly he's surrounded by a lot of love, and that's got to be helping him somewhere inside himself.

Thank you so much. Seems like it's working. He made it through surgery, and is still breathing, so that's very good. Still critical, but looking better!

Oh god. My thoughts are with you and Daniel's family.

I just got news that my friend's cousin has stage four cancer in four major organs.

Demons really are the only explanation that makes sense right now.

I know! It's crazy. Daniel says to say thank you; it's much appreciated. He made it through surgery, and is still breathing, so things are cautiously optimistic. I hope your friend and her family are holding up okay.
