Subject: Temporarily Absent Friends

Posted by: UmberWunFayun
Date: Aug 15 18

With such a well known and loved FT member MIA for such a long time, I thought I'd better update everyone who is missing Elle, aka Blackdresss, on the situation, and at the same time provide a place where players can let everyone know if someone is going to be absent for a while to save any unnecessary worry. This is a close community, and we all notice if our friends disappear. So, from vacations to technological difficulties, please feel free to use this space to keep the community informed about temporarily absent friends (with their permission), or your own sojourns away from the screen should you wish to do so.

Hey, everybody, I was first informed by Elle on 8/3 that she was being treated for a serious case of pneumonia with complications from a C.diff infection. I've heard from Elle again after almost two weeks, she'd been receiving care at home to try to prevent the spread of infection, but since her symptoms have worsened rather than improved, she's being moved back to hospital later today, so she can be put directly onto oxygen and an IV.
Although she may be unable to reply or even read them for a while, I'm sure any messages from her friends would be an aid to her recovery once she is well enough to access them, so if anyone who doesn't have her contact info wants to send her a note, feel free to drop it into my FT private mail and I'll copy it directly into an email for you. Thanks.

C. Diff infection is nasty. Hope she’s getting some good care and treatment and that she makes a speedy recovery.

She has to recover. There's nobody like her. Tough, strong, brilliant.

Go girl!

Update this morning :
Elle has been cleared of pneumonia now so just has the C.Diff infection to deal with. She's not up to joining us here yet, but is very touched by all the kind thoughts and well wishes from everyone, and I'm sure it's all helped her to start feeling a little better.
Thanks.

Glad the pneumonia's gone

(I had to Google that other one. *Shudder* and I didn't look farther than just the name; I couldn't).
Stay strong, Elle. You can fight this. You have to. We all believe in you.

After being on the shelf for over 2 weeks and then finding out about Elle you soon realize that other people's problems are way more severe than yours. I hate being out of touch with people that I care about. I can only hope and pray that Elle recovers very soon and that all will keep her in their prayers.

Sending love and healing energy Elle's way, and I pray the doctors do a stellar job with her (as mine did with me).

Has anyone heard how Elle is doing?
I wonder if she knows how much she is missed?

Hi guys,
Sorry I haven't posted an update, but there's not been much change to report, Elle is still pretty sick and feeling very rough right now, but she's definitely aware of how much she's missed, I copy all your messages and email them to her. She was quite surprised, to say the least, at the kind words of support from some quarters, but very grateful and they have definitely helped to lift her spirits a little.
Thanks to everyone.
