How am I doing?

[wendyzski]

A little leaky around the eyes, and groggy from lack of sleep. It's also "that time of the month", so I'm more emotionally volatile anyway.

Alternating between guilt at finally deciding to break Janet's confidence and relief that it's all open and that people who love her have a chance to prepare for the inevitable.

I am remembering to eat, though I don't want to. Stress kills my appetite, but keeling over won't help anyone. SlimFast is my friend.

Everyone in my office is being quietly supportive - mostly leaving me to myself and giving me simple stuff to do, and also not minding that I'm on LJ and e-mail half of the time.

Mostly just making time.

Love from Winnipeg

[meadbahai.livejournal.com]

Hi Wendy,

Please give my love to Janet when you see her. I was thinking about her a lot in recent months, and was very saddened to receive this news.

Tomorrow evening, a group of Buddhist monks who live across the street from me are coming over to learn about the Baha'i teachings. I will ask them to say prayers for Janet and her family. They appreciate being able to help people in this way.

My love to all down there, and lots of hugs.


Mead

Thank you.

Janet always felt odd about having people pray for her. I talked about it with Jake last night, and we are both of the "hey - anything helps" school of thought, so prayers for her friends and family to have the strength to get through this difficult time would be appreciated.

I understand her feelings. Hey, at hte very least, I'm thinking about her, and all the other friends from NWU and GR. I miss you all very much and hope to hear from you.
