One of my papillons is named Godot just because waiting, when one needn’t wait, should be avoided at all costs.
I am no longer waiting for Godot.
And I wish Jane the very best.

Pure politics?

The son of a retired cop battling a life-threatening illness he caught at Ground Zero is going to Washington with Sen. Hillary Clinton for the State of the Union message, Clinton’s office announced yesterday.

And how many funerals of the soldiers who have perished in Iraq has the senator gone too?

A quick Google found this one from 2004, the Engeldrum funeral. I’m sure there have been more.

Thank you, Peterr, for reminding us all that this is Jane’s cancer, Jane’s surgery, Jane’s recovery, Jane’s life. I am sure that none of us intend to put pressure or to make things difficult on any of Jane’s family and friends who are caring for her right now.

Our love and prayers are with her and them; meanwhile, we wait.

thanks so much for this post. Jane has been in my prayers ever since I read the post about the upcoming surgery. You put it all into perspective and the only thing we can all do to help, is wait with Jane, be here for Jane, and continue sending healing prayers in her direction.
Your ICU nurse was one wise lady.

I know I’m deep in EPUlandia but I just had to share these lyrics from The Devlins’ “Waiting.”

“I’ll still be waiting…
Waiting with the orphans, waiting for the bee stings, they tell me that success brings,
Waiting in the half light, waiting for your whole life,
Waiting for an ideal…a low deal…a no deal, to play your stereotype.
And if you ever find the time,
You know I’m not far behind,
And if you ever need someone…

I’ll still be waiting…
Just waiting for a friend
I say it’s alright,
It’s alright my friend…just waiting”

“Waiting” was featured in the first episode of “Six Feet Under” where Nate is waiting at a bus stop pondering life after his father’s death.

Powerful, powerful stuff. It’s what got me hooked on that show.

But for now, Jane, we’ll be waiting for you. Take as long as you need.

…and in the timeless lyrics of Lou Reed, I’m waiting for my man.

This is probably EPU’d but if Jane would like an upgrade to DC from LAX and is willing to fly on UA I have a heap of them and would be happy to contribute (they mount up commuting to Oz. Just send me an email (Trex has the addy).
