Cowboy here. An update for you. Sar takes a couple steps toward better health, then a half step back. She's getting a bit of rest - most of it forced on her. I know I've stepped down in the genetic world - no longer a Neanderthal. More like Pro-Magnum man according to my wife. So be it. Hoping to get back up to "were you spawned from an armpit?" and "camel spit."
When I'm home I let her online briefly - there's email to read and answer but about 20 minutes is her limit. When I'm away from home I know she sneaks into a site she favors but even then I doubt she has enough energy to stay online long. I've said she can sit up in bed and write but online for any length of time is a few days or weeks away.
David was here for close to a week and brought junk food home. Those 2 eat plenty of burgers and other crap but as long as the imp's eating I'm not complaining. Sar has a hard time falling asleep but David has a sure cure. He sits by the bed and recites long drawn out battle strategies and the imp dozes off. Caveat: He's susceptible to her tears. He sees those and whatever she wants, she gets.
Bull falls apart if he suspects Sar is having a bit of pain. Well, we all do but he takes it hard. He sings her to sleep - the kid has a voice on him - when he thinks I'm looking elsewhere he holds and rocks her until he's sure she's asleep. Hard to believe the 3 of us have distinguished ourselves in battle and fall apart when we see a tear on the face of 1 little woman.
I do the dirty stuff. I get the meds down her throat. I make her stay in bed or covered up on the couch. I'm the one who won't let her climb stairs or cook. I'm the one that lays down the rules. The doc says there's a chance he'll clear her to walk around a bit in a few days.
Sar's getting cranky. She's making demands. She's setting the dogs on us. These are good signs.

Cowboy, thank you so much for taking the time to let us know how Sar is.
I'm 6'3" and built like a brick outhouse, my Mel was 5'3" and petite, I could happily spank her when she needed it, but god help me when she was ill or in real pain, that broke me up, love does that.
I hope that it helps when I tell you that I'm sending your girl all the love and healing that I can and that my online friends are doing the same.
Please pass our love and a huge warm hug to your Sar.

Cowboy please tell sar she has been in my thoughts i check everyday for her post "hopeing to hear her discribe what a bully you have been" between her and cassie they make me smile and laugh and remember that age is only a number, and true life has only just begun
happy thoughts and prayers
Cowboy please let Sar know that i'm sending all the positive energy and white light i possibly can to her... the world is just slightly askew when she's not up and about spinning it herself. She's going to be fine because there is no other acceptable outcome. Hugs, Nay
When I am greatly moved, I have no words...so...a hug to all.

Cowboy, Sar, it is amazing how much you can come to care about someone you have only read about and commented with on line. But you two are loved and admired here and pray for Sar recovery just as I would if she were my sister. I check several time a day because I am anxious for updates. Thanks for taking he time to do this!
Hugs,
PK
