I know you aren’t an expert and all that but it seems to help me sort things out a bit better to read or hear what other people have to say on top of medical articles that can be so cut and dry.

I hope to convince her children that she really needs to be checked out and that this isn’t just attention seeking.

Thank you Quasi

Hey **Quasi** -

Sorry about the job- I imagine it meant a lot to you…

Find something that keeps you connected with people- volunteering is a great idea (not sure about the boob squishing kiosk, though…) 🙂

Hey Quasi, I was trying to learn a new Beatles tune on guitar last night and thought of you. Your thread about which model was used in a particular song, were you thinking about buying that one or trying to best reproduce the same sound?

Lots of these stories you encounter here, you never hear the end result. I’m hopin’ that one worked out well for you.

**Quasi** - You need to feel useful? I have floors that need sanding and refinishing, and I want a new back porch. I need insulation put in my 160 year old farmhouse. I could make you plenty useful. Tennessee’s just up the road from Georgia…😃

You’re _welcome_, Hon! Anything I can do _whenever_, I’m right here for you. My latest blog entry was inspired by you, **Kricket**! Take a look and a listen! My family on the Dope makes me feel THAT strong.

Love Y’all!

Quasi and Bert (my kitty)

Yes, it is the little things isn’t it? Those things that just seem not quite right but not hugely wrong.

In all of this thinking about my own issues I forgot to tell you I’m sorry to hear about your work. I hope you find something that will keep you active and something that will make you a bit happy to boot.

You’re a nice bloke, Quasi, and you are not an asshole [squishes you to my generous bosom].

**Quasi,** you don’t know me from Adam, but I want to express my admiration. You’re playing a damn hard hand with courage and grace.

Best of luck.

You’re wrong,\*\* HellsBreezeway\*\* (the first time I have ever copied and pasted a name! I SWEAR)

We DO know each other.

I’m the same guy you may see sitting on the sidewalk asking you to remember him being a veteran and fighting for your freedom.

I just still have the use of my fingers and (part of) my brains.

Thank you for writing me! It is now 1:31 am and y’all have ALL my attention!

Quasi

And plus, HellzBreezeway:

Sometimes I am totally wiped out, and don’t recognize what’s supposed to be supportive.I DO apologize and I thank you for your love and stuff.

I’m so sorry when I write something wrong, kids!

I did not know that. That’s pretty, well, I don’t want to say “cool”, but it’s interesting.
