There is little to be gained by shouting at a year except, perhaps, the benefits of shouting at something. The thing is that whilst the situation in Haiti is truely catastrophic, and I am genuinely dismayed to read LJs of friends going through hard times, I always knew that 2010 was going to be a painful year.


[livejournal.com profile] sheyna received a text from her father this afternoon. In his typically direct fashion it indicated that Carla's cancer had reached the stage where her life expectancy could be measured in days. The starkest evidence of the prognosis is that the ward Carla is on was barred to visitors because of a bug they want to get under control. The only exception was for families of critically ill individuals - which, as of today, includes us.

So we are in Norwich. Kaz and her father have gone to the ward (even at 10.30pm), whilst I stay to look after Ellie who is understandably a little unsettled by the sudden upheaval.

I know there's nothing we can say to help, but I wanted you to know we're thinking of and praying for all of you. That's dreadful news

Thank you

I am sorry that we have not RSVP'd regarding Audrey's christening. Leaving aside the question of baby-logistics, its been hard to make plans knowing that we might need to hurry to Norwich at a moment's notice.

*hugs* I think under the circumstances we can forgive you. Just look after yourselves and please don't worry about it.

Damn. If there's anything you need that I can help with, just call or text me. In the meantime, my thoughts are with all of you.

I'm so sorry, love. I'm sure you're surrounded by much more medically qualified people than me, but my phone is on night and day and you are very welcome to call with any questions or just for a supportive chat xxx

That's horrible news, I'm so sorry for all of you. I've been naively thinking no news was good news (never mind the fact that I tend to naively think everyone gets better). Do please pass on my love and prayers.

Thinking of you all, I know especially with a small child this is one of the hardest things to cope with. You want to offer full support for your partner whilst trying to maintain a tiny bit of routine for the small person who has no idea why things are wrong and different.

I'll say a prayer for all of you. My love to Kaz and all of you.

Nothing is going to make the situation better, but my thoughts such as they are are with you and your family this morning.

My love to all of you, and to Carla too (she may not remember me, but I will always have fond memories of her, especially at Llangollen YHA many years ago). I'm sure you'll all cherish the chance to spend this time together.

I will add my contribution to the plethora of thoughts and care aimed at you guys.
If there is anything I can possibly do to help (I know there is very little in this situation), you know I am only a phone call away.
You have always helped me so much in my times of need; I cannot think of anyone less deserving of this.
Give my love to Kaz and Ellie.
