3.6 billion kilometers and counting

A person I care very much about is very sick. I'm very worried for him. He's been there for the last 3.6 billion kilometers of my journey to nowhere so far, but sadly I don't think he'll be there for another 3.6 billion. By all rights he would, but we've discussed this: the universe doesn't give a damn.

Holding pattern. Hanging in there. Trying hard. I got up today, like I have for every day so far. I've gone to work/school today, like I have for every day so far. These are small victories, but they are hard won, sometimes.

catch you all when I feel up to participating.

Now I am very concerned about you, because that is your age you are referring to, and that suggests that you have discovered you have some sort of bad, possibly terminal, disease. That, or you are feeling deeply despairing at a dangerously severe level. I care, I will make myself available to you, I will keep my skype open, I will answer any call you make regardless of my situation. You have my priority. You have my attention. You have me.

I have to agree, there are those here that care for your well-being and want to help in whatever manner they can. I myself also said I wanted to help, and that still stands, and unless I suddenly become no longer part of this world, or become some cruel heartless monster, that offer will still be good.

*hugs tight* I had to think about this one for a minute, but I think you are referring to someone very close to you who you have known for almost 4 years.

Damn. It always sucks to know that someone close might not be there for much longer. Please know that we care about you.

Echoing every single word of this. We're here for you, always.

You have friends. Remember that.

We're here for you, Middy. Just remember that.

We're here for you. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.

He's not lost yet. Beyond that... we are your friends, we do care about you, but nothing we can say is going to make this better. The words are as ash while I'm still typing them.

All I can say is, I've also got someone close to me who's spent a long time suffering some pretty severe sickness... and we're going to make it stop.

Ok?
