The wife and I wish her the best and hope she recovers soon.  She's been an incredible admin for years, and has really helped with the site since the migration.  It couldn't have happened without her.

Just heard about this from Serack.

Blaze was a very kind person, and from all my interactions with her I built the impression of a very generous and thoughtful person.   I wish her the best and hope she recovers soon.

Stay safe everyone.

From Shecky:  UPDATE: She is apparently on oxygen but NOT a ventilator, so there's that, at least. THANK GOODNESS.

UPDATE (copy-pasted from her son): Just off the phone with my mom, who is currently hospitalized with the COVID mixed with some pneumonia on the side. She seems to be taking it in stride. She wanted me to make sure people know she isn't dying, just very bored in isolation.

Sending all my good vibes and, of course, praying for her. Get well soon, dearest Blaze!!!

*HUGS* for you all.

Thank you for all the good wishes. 

I am home from the hospital, and while it will be a while before I am fully recovered, I am doing amazingly well all things considered.

Most importantly, of course, I can breathe without artificial assistance of any kind!

Again, my thanks for all the good wishes!
