I'm Still Here (I think)

Remember that great song by Stephen Sondheim: "I'm Still Here" ? Well, if you don't remember it, you aren't living right.

Be that as it may, I'd like to tell my felllow NitLetters, or at least those who are interested, that I'm still around, even though I haven't visited my favorite interactive site for several weeks. The reason is an intensive stretch of radiation and chemotherapy, of which I've been promised will end, at least for now, at the end of April.

If all goes well, I sincerely -- make that profoundly-- hope to be back here among the active NitLetters by mid-May or so. I should finally-finally!-- have an actual 21st century computer by then. Meantime, I'd appreciate any light-hearted thoughts you might harbor,

Thanks for everything, and may the God of your choice bless you.


Your auntie

I'm sorry to hear that you've been so unwell - I wish you a speedy and complete recovery, and look forward to seeing more of your always entertaining and intelligent thoughts here on LitNet!

I am very sorry too. I don´t know you yet, being new at the forum.
I hope you will recover soon and join us at the forum.
Meawhile surround yourself with everything that can make you happy.

I wish you a quick recovery and hope your back on the saddle, charging forward soon!

Best wishes and I hope you have a complete recovery. I can't think of anything light-headed to say even though I just got out of bed. Some of those 21st century computers are already antiques.

Accept my best wishes for a speedy recovery. I miss your posts (as well as those of some others who have abandoned us, I hope for a less dramatic reason).

Aunty,
I have a bottle of Drambuie with your name on it. Whadya say we hop in my truck head west and drag the fringe of skirts across the purple sage?
Look forward to the return of that ole vim and vinegar.

From a past poetry thread interlude between Aunty and the village idiot…

Drambuie? Are you kidding? You must think we're all members of the One Percent with liquor budgets the size of the GNP of Austria.

Aunty,
I reckon you and I’ve been dragg’n the fringe of our skirts across the western sage a bit longer than most folks around here. God as looked kindly on us though, bless’n us with vinyl ‘an gramophones, afford’n us the means to listen and read at the same time.

RE: Drambuie on a budget
A bottle of Night Train mixed with a cup of honey is, for all intents and purposes, a close equal.

Aunty, I'll add my wishes for a full recovery, and to see you back with us.

Get well soon, Aunt Shecky! I'm praying for your recovery. Hope to see you back soon with your entertaining posts.

Aunty, I'll add my wishes for a full recovery.

I hope you will have a full recovery and be able to chat here on lit net and enjoy the spring/summer soon!

Hey Aunt Shecky, if ever there was a trooper, it's you. I'm looking forward to April and having you back amongst us, your tart wit, and corny jokes. We loves ya' baby, and we can't do without you.

See you soon!

Great to see your name again, AuntShecky! Very sorry to hear about your health issues, but very glad that you seem to be overcoming them. I'll cross my fingers and hope for the best for you, and will look forward to seeing you post regularly again.

Auntie!

I'm thinking good thoughts for you.

'Gods' you mean - plural

We're all thinking of you Aunty
