} 016 - [VIDEO] - because everyone needs more of this in their lives

[Amanda looks somewhat improved. The area around her nose is no longer swollen, and the bruise is mostly faded to a sickly yellow color. It's healing well, but it will really never look quite the same as it did before the break. She's also got the use of her right arm back, but the chest tubes and ventilator are still present. She raises her

Are you feeling better?

Private - she will continue to work at him... :c

[creatingalegacy]

Somewhat. My face and arm have improved, but these fucking tubes and drains are driving me crazy and it aches to breathe.

Thanks for the concern, Judas. And hey, I'm sorry for what that bible-thumping asshole and his warden said. Don't listen to them.

Re: Private - I am so down for this.

[heavenonthemind]

Your chest hasn't healed yet?

I'm trying not to. It's hard to hear that, though. I thought I could handle the taunts and insults when I posted it, but I was wrong.

It's not going to heal for a while. A whole section of my ribcage cracked apart from the rest. If I don't stay in bed and wait for the pieces to heal back together, it could puncture my lung and kill me.

He's an angry, ignorant bastard, and his warden...well, you remember what I told you about coddling, don't you?

Re: Private

Stay still as best you can, then. I'm sorry it happened. I didn't realize that Donny would...

I do. John's warden was far worse than John, his defense of such... terrible things was more piercing.

Private

It's not your fault. I appreciate you looking out for me, though.

I agree completely. At least Doe is crazy, but Will? He has no excuse for his behavior. And to jump down our throats, we who stood to defend you...as if it wasn't enough for him to champion his inmate, he needed to shout down your friends, too.

Now, maybe Adam and I used harsh language, but that doesn't give Will more of a right to tell us that we can't stick up for you.

Re: Private

[heavenonthemind]

I thought the language was appropriate for the situation. I was trying to handle it but apparently not well enough for Will's tastes.

Private

[creatingalegacy]

Try to ignore him. Attempting to make him see reality will only burn you out, trust me. I say this from experience: people like that can't be reasoned with.

He doesn't even deserve your effort.

Re: Private

Thank you for your support.

Of course, Judas. Anytime.
