You're lovely and very kind! I am indeed back on LJ; it's a recent development. I got a new account (I deleted the old one a few years ago and it's all fresh and new now). I'm about to publish a new book, and I'm writing a fic for HP Kinkfest. Things are very different, and it's excellent ;-)

I'm so sorry Stgulik is going through such a horrible ordeal; I can't even wrap my head around it. What a terrible way to lose a loved one... Like too_dle_oo said, it hardly seems possible something like this could have happened, like a nightmare. I can only hope that the affection sent Stgulik's way is helping, even in a minute measure, and that her brother and sister-in-law will make a full recovery.
