I'm happy to talk to the Bear any time if he wants rant, swear, or tell dirty jokes.
He might not have mentioned this to much but having a good woman like you to care for him and the cubs is a pretty special thing.

Stop hitting on Squinney.
What the hell kind of world do we live in that a damn fine man like the Bear lies suffering in the hospital and vile scumbags like Cheney and Rove walk around in good health.
If there is a God wouldn't Rove have the Ebola Virus by now?
He works tirelesly in the dark, forgotten shadows, leaves baskets of fruit and medicine in dusky doorways and makes the lame to walk.
Why do you persecute this good man?

IMO, it is much harder for the family members at this time, than it is for the person who is in hospital.
I feel for Squinney and her family, as they are all worrying themselves sick, running around trying to get to the hospital for visits, liasing with other friends and family and generally disappearing up their own posteriors in the process.

I'm sending you some good vibes in the meantime.
OMMMMMMMMMM OMMMMMMMMMMM.
Crossing all crossables until we hear that all went well. Good Luck, Bear!
