On the snow/ice storm front: Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, we’re expected to get anywhere up to a foot of snow. Could be more than 12 inches, could be less, but if it’s heavy and wet anywhere they’re already warning that there could be power outages. Sleet is also expected as it turns into a blizzard. Mom and I are gathering coats and blankets just in case the power goes out. We have so much bread and regular food, we have water, we have blankets and warm clothing, we…have discovered that the gas heater we obtained was installed incorrectly and therefore cannot be turned on. It would wreck the wall to remove it, so there it will stay. It also has a bit of fine print against the wall stating not to use it if there’s anyone anemic in the house or planning to be in the house. We are trying to find the little propane heaters Dad bought after the ice storm years back.

(If anyone wonders, yes, he will be stranded at the hospital for the duration.)

Oh, and they’ve named it Winter Storm Euclid. So we can blame the Father of Geometry.

More drama around here, as my sister is sent to the hospital. She apparently decided (please don’t ever ask or comment about this, this is just how she is, despite being four years older than me) that it would be a smart move to eat or drink absolutely nothing for almost a week, because she just didn’t want to. And we couldn’t convince her to. And when Mom spotted that my sister’s legs were swollen from something like the knee down to the ankle, she was sent to the hospital. Currently diagnosed (as you’d expect after a week) with dehydration and malnutrition. Oh, and for a while someone thought she had Impetigo, but no. It's just acne.

I believe (and Mom agrees) she’s situated one floor above where Nellie is currently dying, but the nurses aren’t allowed to tell Mom the exact room number, due to doctor-patient confidentiality. She’s trying to get it from a neighbor, who is currently at work.
