My fantastic news Friday just went flushing down. Wife was rushed from the Nursing Rehab center back to the Hospital. Labored breathing, High WBC @18, Creatnine at 3.1. Irregular heartbeat and that's not including the long covid, COPD of her lungs. This time she may not make it. Worse I've ever seen her. ![]() |

Praying for you both. I went through something similar with my mom. I was her healthcare power of attorney. Whe the time came I had to sign the DNR for her she begged me. They wouldn't let her. |
"There is no such thing as "Just a cat." Robert A. Heinlein |
"Perhaps one did not want to be loved so much as to be understood." George Orwell |
George, for all his bluster and the political commentary within his writing. He offered a wealth of excellent advice for those who suffer from a writing bug bite. He was not big on interviews and only allowed a few (less than 10 for the BBC in the early 1940s, and fewer than 40 in lectures and printed forms centered around his works like 1984 and Animal Farm). I find myself in awe of the truth I see in these few comments on our craft. I particularly like the one about "One should never consider a manuscript finished until one has edited it at least fifty times. Anything less and one can consider their efforts trash and obliged to toss it in the nearest dustbin." I understand George Orwell's comment is from his writings about Animal Farm. |
