Crises, real and otherwise

[eve_prime]

Today there was some sort of violence threat on Reddit targeting the high school serving the neighborhood west of us - S's mom is the art teacher there. D says the threat was linked to some account in the Netherlands, and that maybe it was all nonsense, but the threat also extended to mayhem in town more generally so he didn't go get his allergy shot. I hope everything will continue going smoothly.

Meanwhile, my friend the executive director of the youth orchestras has had some sort of emergency health crisis and is in the hospital. I hope she'll be okay! She's about 65 I think.

I sure hope your friend at the youth orchestra is okay!

Yesterday we learned that she can't talk yet because she's still intubated, but she's recognizing family members and can answer questions by nodding or shaking her head. So now we know that it's going to take quite a while to get well again. (We still haven't heard what kind of emergency surgery she had, as the family is protecting her privacy.)

That sounds very serious, I hope she improves soon.

Thank you, I hope so too! I sure wish that I'd pushed harder on our project to update the handbook that explains all the work she does, though...
