Prayers for all three of you. For strength and healing and peace.

Is the little one young enough that she would sleep through if you picked her up and held her in the middle of the night? It used to be very comforting for me to do that sometimes. Just to sit in the dark with a sweet little sleeper on my lap, very peaceful.

**lieu** , I’m sending whatever I’ve got your way, and your family’s.

I had something similar happen two years ago, when we found out my mom had colon cancer. It didn’t look good, but she’s still with us. I hope things turn out as well, or better, for you.

Damnit, lieu. Such bad news. You’re both in my thoughts. I have to say, it’s especially galling to hear about such things happening to people who have brought so much laughter to others. I’ve nearly peed my pants over some of your posts. I hope you and the lieuspouse will find occasions to laugh in the difficult days ahead.
