Miss Manners might say:
Be useful, especially when 911 callbacks need to be made due to dropped calls.
Opening doors for emergency response personnel is mannerly and useful.
So is schlepping things to and from the hospital for the person undergoing tests.
So is giving lettuce leaves to the hamster and making sure the husband of the person in the hospital eats.
Anyhow, I'm a little distracted just now. Teresa is doing well, and in very good hands, and we await the results of various tests to see what happens next.
When I postponed my flight home this past Tuesday due to not feeling at all well, I figured a few days of recuperation and then a quiet weekend and then home. I didn't expect all this. But I am very glad to be here and to be able to help, because having two of us (me and Patrick) to be tag-team has proven very useful.
And now I go watch more Buffy episodes. Catch you later.

I'm so glad you were there!
Here's to a speedy recovery, and I hope you get to feeling better too.

Yes, opening the doors and directing 911 to the house is a good thing. And all those taking-care-of-daily business things are not to be underestimated.
2008-09-14 02:13 am (UTC)
The three of you are in my thoughts.

You are just the one I'd want around in such a situation. I'm sorry it is a situation. Give my best to everybody and do keep a generous bit for yourself.

It sounds like a blessing that your return was delayed.
My heart goes out to all, I loves yous all for various reasons and it would be really bad not to have you here.
2008-09-14 02:47 am (UTC)
Yes, Miss Manners would say those things, and I'm very glad you're on hand to do them.
Please give my love to P&T, and keep a good measure of it for yourself, too.
Updates as you have them would also be welcome. Within the confines of P&T's wishes, obviously. And if there's anything I can do from MA, or by coming down, please let me know. Having someone around with a car might prove useful over the next week or two.

Oh my!

My husband had a mild heart attack on August 26th. Having someone there means a great deal.
Please send my best wishes for a speedy recovery. My thoughts are with you all. If there's anything I can do, let me know.
