Thanks so much for your words, guys. I just received a call from his sister. James was apparently having a lot of trouble breathing, but they put him on heavier antibiotics and pain medication and he seems to be doing fine now. I hate this stupid waiting game, I really do. I just want to go to sleep for a week and wake up with him. I feel so selfish complaining about my situation, because everything I'm going through is nothing compared to what he's going through, what he will go through when he wakes up and finds out that Michael is gone forever. I'm worried out of my mind. Hey ! Stop that ! There is absolutely no need for you to feel selfish because you need to talk about all this and because you are worried sick. Yes, it's important to try and stay positive and stay strong. But no one can do that on a continuous base without needing to talk, express feelings and simply take rest and time to deal with your own emotions, I think there are plenty of people around here who are willing to listen and help you through this difficult time

She told me the same thing she told me shortly after I had my daughter. "You have to take care of yourself before you can take care of others." But it's in my nature. D: I kinda went a little overboard today. I shared his fund thing on my Facebook with a message that basically said, "If you can't share this, I'm deleting you." Here's the long version: Was I out of line? I don't even know anymore.

I think I might say something more like: "Please, please, share this. It will mean a great deal to me."

I think I might say something more like: "Please, please, share this. It will mean a great deal to me." I tried that yesterday and only received one share, unfortunately. I guess that says all sorts of things about my so-called friends. I'm beginning to agree with my boyfriend. "Social media will be the end of us all."

I don't think anyone can blame you for being so emotionally charged - I've no way to ever grasp what you're going through. When it comes to things like this, I always think it's a good thing just to stop, take a breath (not literally, more time than that ) and then act - the last thing you want is to upset a support group...however poor they are or aren't.

Thanks for the advice, Graham. I really appreciate you being real with me. My family and RL friends are tiptoeing around eggshells and it just makes everything worse. orz And thanks very much to everyone for the thoughts and prayers! <3 I feel really bad for ignoring GT for so long now. You all are being wonderful. Justine's status just now: I'm trying so hard to stay positive it physically hurts.

You all are being wonderful. Justine's status just now:I'm trying so hard to stay positive it physically hurts. No worries. I'd much rather tell you how I see it, regardless of whether its what you want to hear or not. They're probably doing that because they don't know how to deal with it - these are extraordinary circumstances after all. Don't feel bad about being vulnerable - its awesome you're trying to be positive but allow yourself an opportunity to feel and be emotional...for your own good, if nothing else.

There's obviously not a great deal that I can really say to make the situation any easier for you or much I can do to help, but he's still with you and in the best place he can be, which is the most important thing. You've just got to try and stay strong and wait it out now. I'm not religious or spiritual, but I'll be thinking of you both, at least.

I just talked with his sister again. He's still having trouble breathing and his temperature is still high. It's an infection, which is the only thing we have to fear for right now. Since he inhaled all that smoke and was put on a ventilator he's really prone to lung infection. They're putting him on a broad-spectrum antibiotic. Justine says that should take care of it, but I've had to do a lot of reading between the lines up to this point because she keeps telling me what she thinks I want to hear.
Thanks again, everyone. I feel like saying it multiple times without personalizing the message for everyone makes it sound insincere, but I really am extremely grateful to all of you.
