PGP: I'm Dreaming of a U2 Christmas

[GraceRyan]

I watched Parade's End, and by the last part, I was extremely jealous of both Adelaide Clemens and Rebecca Hall......

It's quite good. I saw it when it came out over the summer on the BBC. I downloaded it and watched it on my computer. It's even lovelier on the big screen.

I think Rebecca Hall did an amazing job. There were times I felt bad for her.

 

[GraceRyan]

They left us...

We have each other. We got to carry each other....

Speaking of, has anyone seen the U2 meets Goat video?

Oh, goats!

There should be a good goat and an evil goat. In leather.

[Galeongirl]

Does this remind anyone else of the Godfather U2 clip? Edge's goat noises? No? I'll show myself out.

 

[MsPurrl]

Thank you, JJ and Grace, for my laughs for the day!

It really was beautifully done. I think they did an amazing job with the casting, especially Rebecca. Adelaide was really wonderful as Valentine too.

That is the villain of the new Star Trek movie Benedict Cumberbatch. He always plays Sherlock in the BBc version. While Bono is on sabbatical, he has taken over the role of number 1 hubba hubba. Hey, it's what happens when U2 go on hiatus.

My mom got a call from the doctor today. The cancer's back.

I don't think I'm gonna be around much for a while.

[Galeongirl]

Shit Tara, that blows.

 

[bonocomet]

So sorry Tara, Crossing fingers for better news soon.

 

[GraceRyan]

Please keep us updated when you can.

A quick update post for what's going on with me right now and why I'm not around as much:

Spoiler

Just yesterday moved my mom to an assisted living home, sort of like a nursing home. So I'm back home after a year. I've been stressed out to the max getting her moved, not just trying to condense a lifetimes worth of her possessions into a tiny room, but also all the medical transfer of records, med schedules, just tons of work. I'm so right now. Still haven't moved my stuff back home yet so I'm in between right now.
And now, time to start the process for my dad, as it's clear he can no longer live alone anymore either. I'm about to seriously

 

[TaraCynara]

Comet Hope things get settled for you and your parents soon.





Thanks for the everyone.

Quick update:

Spoiler

After finding that out, the oncologist called and said that there are two lumps, both are only about 1 cm, and that the radiation should take care of them. Apparently, the one who called and told us the first time was the radiation specialist, not the oncologist.

 

[bonocomet]

Well that's good news! Sometimes it's a huge difference who you speak to, I know that from experience too. And thanks also.

 

[dazzledbylight]

wow

tara

Soooo sorry to hear this.. ah i see it's better than intitial info.... Go zap that C crap!


comet

Ha..... I must have been tunning in your wave length...

After several inner promptings oof bthe past, oh, 6 weeks or so not acted on; tonight I finally was going to ask you about your mom?
I thought you hadn't mentioned her for a good while at least as far as
the posts I caught.

Well, .... it's sad N but also at least it should be better for you both and then your dad.

Don't remember your original situation.... Any siblings that could, be williing, or that you'd want to help?

I remember helping my mom pick out the stuff she needed and wanted. It was nice she did have a whole nice shelf plus spots here & there to put her favorite crafts given to her, or that she made. Beautiful items.
My folks went into the 2nd home within about half a year of each other.

Good Luck again....

 

[dazzledbylight]

[MsPurrl]

Tara, hoping for the best for your mom!

comet, bless your heart. That is not an easy row you have to hoe. I wish there were some way I could help!

Aw. All the positive thoughts and vibes I have are with you and your family. Speedy recovery to your mom.

Comet, wow. Thinking of you as well. Been there, and it's a huge adjustment.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

Whew, well, that's a little more promising news, Tara. Sorry to hear your mom's still going through this crap, though-hopefully all goes well and they can manage to get rid of everything .

And to Comet as well. Hopefully your mom will be able to make herself comfortable there, and good luck doing the same thing with your dad. I can't imagine how tough that would be, even if it is ultimately the right thing to do.
