<p>One moment she was struggling with a bad chest congestion and next moment her heart stopped and she stopped breathing.</p>
<p>I was there when it happened. As soon I realized she had stopped breathing I called 911. The EMTs were there soon after.</p>
<p>I am still in shock at the moment.</p>
<p>She was far from perfect but she was all I had. She struggled with alcoholism, fallout from a fall that hit her head, depression, deepening memory issues, psoriatic arthritis. She was basically bed bound for the most part.</p>
<p>I now face going home to only my cat. </p>
<p>Please pardon me if I do not comment on stories as much.</p>

<p>The fact that she has been 'cancel cultured' and her rights as well as the constituents she is representing are being taken away just shows what the opposition is made of.</p>

<p>Anyway, according to this news posting <a href="https://www-dialog-ua.translate.goog/war/264774_1671761195?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en">https://www-dialog-ua.translate.goog/war/264774_1671761195?_...</a> (translated using Google Translate apparently) the man is likely to lose his erm 'family jewels' due to being injured by a Ukrainian artillery attack at his birthday party in a hotel.</p>
<p>Since this is supposed to be a 'friendly' site, I leave it to the reader of this blog to lookup the character of this person and why a suitable piece of fiction may be derived from this incident.</p>

<p>Now I am getting this whole recapcha thing which I dislike since I am providing a free service to google to train their AI in image recognition. It also defeats the purpose of my desire to check quickly.</p>
<p>Is BC being that inundated with bots that this is really necessary?</p>
