This is waaay overdue, but a HUGE thank you (x2) to u/lonelytwatwaffle for two June cards that really brought me some serenity and cheer during a very dark time. This has been the most painful summer I have experienced, and unfortunately another friend of mine currently lies in a coma (induced) after suffering a catastrophic brain bleed. She is expected to recover, but there are many contraindications that we're all nervous wrecks right now. I'm trying to expedite my passport, get a booster COVID shot, and prepare to fly to Europe soon to support. It's madness.

So, bariatric surgery plus death of mother plus massive therapy and medical leave from work due to trauma and PTSD plus a friend in a coma... yep, this is why I've been self-absorbed and AWOL from reddit. I'm still in the thick of it, too. :(

But my waffly one! Thank you so much! Your care package, your cards, and your lovely penmanship. Your paper ephemera! Your wit! YOUR CAT. And of course, your empathy through shared experiences and your true caring nature that comes through your letters. Thank you so much.
