Thanks again, everyone, for your kind words, thoughts, prayers and pixie dust, both here and in game. PrincessMajelBug and I are very tired. I fell asleep while making the DVDs I referenced earlier, with mouse in hand. Sclim said he almost took a picture, but didn't have the heart to make fun of me.
It was all very difficult. He was a wonderful man, would have turned 86 on the 24th of this month. Had six kids (buried one), buried his wife, two brothers and one sister. Two sisters are still here. Friends and family were non-stop all five days.
PrincessMajelBug's biological father announced to me that "the events of the past few days have put things into sharper focus. I would like to start seeing her, low-key to start." These are the words that I've dreaded. Sclim is the man she's known as Daddy for the past seven years. I'm afraid this will so confuse her, and hurt him, too.
So, what I'm getting at is, please continue to pray for her. He's not one to keep his promises, so I'm not saying anything to her. But if he does decide to start seeing her, she's going to be one confused little girl.
