Message to two of my Irish cousins, via Facebook:

So, I just found out a week ago that Aunt Maura died, like, almost a year ago. I wish to ask you both a favor. Let me know when someone dies. I really loved Maura, and wish I could have shed a couple of tears for her at the appropriate time. Hearing that it was so long ago bypassed the tears and lead to anger. It wasn't surprising that she (or William) died but I would have at least liked a heads up. It's not easy having half your family on another continent. Please at least tell me that Robert is still alive.

(Twid)

I would have at least liked to get in contact with (Maura's grandson) and extended my condolences, like he did when I was last over. Side note- I'm going to attempt a trip to Ireland and UK sometime in the next 8 months. It's primarily to have fun and rediscover the area, and meet up with some internet friends, but I will be in Connemara at some point. Would like to meet up with you both and Colm at some point.

Seems ok, yes? It's already sent, of course, but, just want to make sure it's all reasonable.

Which bit? Me not hearing about Maura or my response to it?

EFO had a run-in with the hospital today. She's OK but dude. Stressful. Sigh.

Oh, no!  Nothing too serious, I hope.

She had a bit of a breakdown. Suicidal ideation, self-harm, severe anxiety. I am currently in dispute with my ex over transferring her to another school that will be a healthier and more supportive environment for her.

She'll be 15 at the end of the month. A lot of this is really normal stuff, but I'm concerned because there is a history of mental illness on his side of the family and suicide on mine, and this kind of thing, mishandled, can go really really wrong... and he means well, but tends toward authoritarianism. Despite the fact that his parents managed to fuck him up BUT GOOD with their authoritarianism.

Yeah, it's fairly normal, but also nothing to take lightly.

Any time, Nigel.  You sound like My Tucson™ has sort of leaked up there.
