Whole Lot of Stuff Goin' On

2014 was Hell. Starting in April, and ending Not Just Yet.

Long story short, my sister was sent by Life Flight with brain trauma. After life-saving surgery, she began having seizures, and was sedated and put on life-support. It took almost 2 weeks to get the seizures under control, and she woke up on Mother's Day last year. She couldn't speak, and couldn't walk...she was released to a nursing home a week before my 96 year old Grandmother died.

Since then, she has progressed to walking, sometimes with a cane, and now comes to my house to play practical jokes. Yay!

My mother is channeling her mother. It wouldn't be so bad, but Grandma wasn't all that nice.

It was also really great that my brother went batshit crazy and decided that the Howler was his arch-nemesis. That culminated at Easter, when he took a for reals tantrum. Since then, he's had it explained (not by me!) to him, and he is now behaving like a sane adult.

2015 is better. Busier, but better.
