Shout out to JCW and his mom

You all know JCW, a frequent and hilarious commenter here. (If you do not know JCW, you must be new. Welcome.)

JCW's ma was recently diagnosed with lung cancer.

This, of course, sucks great big donkey balls.

I spent all my after-school time at her house growing up, so much so that when she brought treats home from the grocery store for her kids, she brought one for me, too. And by treats, I mean a snazzy blue Goody comb with a handle that stuck out of my back pocket and made me look cool. I think I got a toothbrush once, too. It was the beginning of my love for useful things.

JCW's dad has also been seriously ill and now this. Gah!

I love you JCW. Though I have not called - because I suck - I think about you and your family every day.

Need to vent? My blog is your blog.

Be well.
