Inconsistency a specialty

pjthompsonMy friend is kind of in a holding pattern at the moment. The doctors are trying an aggressive healing regime to try to avoid surgery. He'll be in the hospital at least a week with that, then comes the big decision. If he hasn't improved enough, he'll have to go through major surgery. The prognosis is fairly good--he's been healthy as a horse until this latest crisis--but it's still major surgery and it's still worrying.
So all we can do is wait and hope the healing works. And send good thoughts and prayers his way. I'm trying not to have faith in my fear.
He's like a brother to me. Back in our bohemian days he, his wife, and I all shared a place on Venice Beach. There are no two people on this planet I'm closer to, with the exception of my mother. It's frustrating not being able to do something. But sometimes all you can do is wait.
Random quote of the day:

On a far less important note, Charged with Folly has gotten a pretty decent reception on the OWW. I guess I'm on the right track there. I'm quite pleased.
I love writing novels. I always know where I am when I'm immersed in a big project, even if I don't know where the story is going. It's one of those perverse inconsistencies which are my specialty.
