Pops and Cg1 both ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. His nurses visited again and decided they needed more attention.
Neither got their flu shot this year and neither had a pneumonia shot in the last three years. Moms are not happy with Pops. Captain and I made supper last night, red meat, potatoes and veggies and the others cleaned their plates and the pots. The teens even felt like making some homemade ice cream and the three of them were pigs - didn't offer us even a bite.
Good to see them hungry again.
I took a half-hour shower and did not get tired at all - I even shaved ALL the necessary body parts. Captain felt good enough this morning to make homemade biscuits, sausage patties, bacon and cooked up scrambled eggs for sausage/bacon, egg and cheese biscuits. Yum Yum.
Pops called saying he was leaving at 9 am with or without permission and Cg1 was coming with him. If someone was not there when they did their jail hospital break, they were running away together. Captain told him laa-dee-freaking-dah and to have fun.
Cg1 called back to make sure we knew they were serious. Poor girl, Davis gave her so much crap - even Davis felt sorry for her. Henry called a little later wanting to know if there was anything else he needed to get when he went in to get Pops.
We gave him several things we needed - all made up - if he gets half, it'll take all day. We figure Pops will tell him to forget it all - if not, we are going to be swimming in it this weekend.

Posted at 5:16 AMWe do not need anymore "Get Well" messages or home remedies or suggestions of healthy food.
We have a virus - it is a really bad virus. Several of us took showers INSTEAD of baths this morning which is a big step forward - yesterday all we could do was crawl into the bath tub or jacuzzi and lay there until the water got cold.
It felt SO good to wash my hair this morning. Erin, Fire, G, Annie, Summer and Red's Mom came out last night to help anyway they could. Bruce and Adam stopped by later but no one wanted what they offered. Sorry guys.
So, how do I say this with tact? Leave us the fuck alone - we are sick - thanks much!

Posted at 5:21 AMWe are no better. Pops even got his oxygen machine out of the closet early this morning for a breathing treatment. Davis is back acting as head nurse - Cg1 even felt like sex but only lasted about 2 minutes before falling asleep.
Red's parents drove out to get Fish. Her father spent several minutes looking around and Pops invited them out for dinner once we are better. Red told him her Dad used to fish everyday but quit once he retired. Captain said he would show him some good fishing if it warms up again.
So I am awake long enough to tell Moms we are all still down - later.

Momtoo’s daughter died suddenly from a breaking blood vessel in her brain. At least that is what they think happened.
The doctors think it is connected to a near fatal accident five years ago that severely damaged her skull and consequently her brain.
Autopsy was performed Tuesday after they finally contacted Momtoo but the results are not known.
Momtoo and Mom should return home this afternoon.
Dani is devastated. They were very close. The girl was a year older then Dani. After her accident Dani lived at the hospital with Momtoo waiting for her to wake up.
The brain damage was extensive but for some reason she connected with Dani and they spent several months in therapy learning how to do everything. Her memory had been almost completely destroyed.
But her brain function was not impaired. One of the smartest people the girls have known.
Dani is completely incapacitated and all of their hearts are hurting.
They’ll bounce back soon. Thanks for your patience.
