the turn-around.

people who really know me aren't going to believe this,
but... i haven't been angry in days.
i even almost got killed in the rotary
(16-yr-olds shouldn't be allowed to drive)
and by the time i was out of the rotary...
i no longer cared.

i'm no longer orthostatic.
it's been about 2 years
since i've been able to say that.

i can't believe how well i can think.
i'm gaining back my creativity.
i thought i had permanently lost
my ability to do any form of art.
i was so uninspired and it's coming back.

i've been making hats again like crazy,
and i've decided i'm actually going to sell them
like bill's been telling me i should for a year.
not only that, but my mom suggested
i donate a portion of the proceeds to NEDA.
i believe i might also donate to the
Scleroderma Foundation.
we'll see how well they sell
and how many i can actually make to sell.

dad update:
he came home today!
basically because...
there's no more, medically, they could do for him.
his bed's been replaced with a hospital bed.
he will be on oxygen 24/7.
he has a nurse that will be visiting daily to take his vitals.

his bone marrow biopsy came back great.
his bone marrow's fine,
which means his disease is what's killing his red cells.
which is kind of good, because if it was his bone marrow,
he would've needed a bone marrow transplant
and he's not strong enough to survive that kind of procedure.

oh...and desktop david is officially null&void.
i think that was the hardest thing for me to hear, so far,
because we all know what that business meant to my dad.
that was his baby.
