@spacedoutsmiles Hugs, more hugs, and reminders to manage panic are very helpful, Jamie. You and Lion help me so much with self-management!

Mom is tired but slept and out of the conspiracy loop. Today it's parietal lobe biopsy time. I need a coffee with 45 espresso shots in it.

Sean needs help. We start with our communities and find the need. Here's a person who, like me, is aiming high: gofund.me/seandoran

We have a human right to be safe! What an unsafe world. We are all wrong to permit this to continue. The stress we are under is also deadly.

I had to physically separate Mom's in order for her to feel protected. She was so distraught she thought my stepdad was part of the plot.

I just went through my own unsafe environment trauma. I deeply empathize with Mom. Just because you're paranoid...

I hate waking in panic. Seems common with exhaustion. Trying to calm. Stepdad is with Mom. I need to recover or I'll be in a bed beside her.

@AgentPalmer When I was there that was actually the tactic that helps - make jokes. I just can't be there without being here right now.:)

I have had to handle such physical and emotional endurance this week, I'm amazed I have managed. I am not well right now, and need to be.

She was so lucid and on-point yesterday. She's very afraid of tomorrow's brain biopsy and think that's turned into this plot.
Mom's is physically doing well but having ideations and it's very difficult because she believes there's an assassin cult in the hospital.

@GordonShumway11 Is there Refuah Shlema? Perhaps in death. Once struck with a mortal disease, there's only so much recovery, as I well know.
Mom has an entirely new hip. A 6 hour surgery, then she watched Masterpiece Theater like any other Sunday night in her life. #momentsWithMom

@Hell3Quin and I from oxycodone and exhaustion coma. Ugh.
@ericlaw Gotta be something acidic, I think. Distressing to imagine you actually need to add acid to acid lest the newsprint turn to paste!

@OmanReagan Curious, are those accounts posting and if so, are there more voices of dissent or of support?
