so where's the updates
Man, there've been a bunch of things I wanted to post about, and things keep getting in the way. I was sick. While I was sick I injured myself. Then after that I nearly broke my wrist and typing was problematic for a while.
And now, well...
SO ABOUT THIS WEEK
My father started chemotherapy this week.
And then my sister, who is in England, had emergency surgery. It turns out the NHS is a trash fire without compare, because despite the *critically necessary* nature of her procedure, they still couldn't even give her a bed to recover in - no, it was, "So who's going to look after you when we send you home immediately?"
The answer, in the short term, was a friend of hers who rearranged his life for a couple of days, and then in the medium term the answer is our mother, who flew out on a day's notice to go to England and take care of her daughter.
My mother is terrified of flying. Terrified. But my father, apart from anything else, started chemotherapy this week.
I feel like my family just caught fire kinda out of nowhere but we're managing and I'm totally not going to panic about any of it. It's all being handled. Just.
And now, well...
