Looking Back 2011, a personal note

[ehs_wildcats]

This has been a strange year. For Zac and for me. And I have to say I think he's doing well and going into 2012 with a lot of promise. I am doing a lot better too. So knock on wood, we both keep it up, lol

Thanks and right back at you! :)

I wish it didn't have to have come in as an awful a way, but you getting so sick really hit me, and everyone in this little Zef circle very hard, and we were all rooting and hoping and praying for you so hard. Fandom is a fickle thing, sometimes I love it, and sometimes I want to say "fuck everyone, I'm just gonna look at pretty pictures", but it brings people together and I am very, very happy to have had a reminder of that. Apart from all the Zef stuff, you are such a nice, kind, respectful person, which I know and we don't even talk that much! So I am immensely happy that things are looking up for you physically and otherwise, and I really hope they continue to in 2012. I hope we have lots of squeeing moments, lots of proud moments, and maybe even some heated debates around here, and that we can enjoy them all together.

Happy new year. <3

Thank you :) What I love most about fandom and why I keep doing this is getting to know all the people. And I have every hope that this is going to be a great year for fandom. There is so much to look forward to in terms of Zac. And I just want him to keep working and working, lol.

I hear ya, all the NYE promo just made me so excited for TLO to be over so we get The Paperboy and everything lol. I'm so excited for him to really break out and I hope these movies he has coming up will do that for him. And I can't wait to share it with all you guys. <3

I am so glad to read that you are doing well! I remember the night I first read about your illness and I just remember being floored and wondering how you could possibly be so sick. I remember calling home and talking to my parents and telling them about what was going on and having to stop in the middle for a second because I was too choked up. I know that sounds weird since we don't really talk that much, but after reading your journal for so long I kind of felt like I "knew" you.

I have to agree with Mel...sometimes I want to throw my hands up and be like "ok I'm done with this fandom" but I find it so amazing that a simple common interest could bring so many people together and lead to such close friendships. I've always said that if I ever get the chance to meet Zac, I'd thank him for all the awesome people he and his movies have brought to my life.

Happy 2012 Cady, and everyone!

I don't really know how I got so sick either. It's LOL but not at the same time! It's just so weird. I was admitted to the hospital then they said flu tests were (false) negative so I could go home with antibiotics if I wanted to. I said no I think I feel awful so I'll stay.

Then after a day or two of House marathoning and only being able to eat dinner rolls, they wanted to take me to the ICU and I was like, "Oh, ok. I guess I should call my sister and dad." And I don't remember anything after being wheeled down in my bed, lol. My sister was kind of bewildered at first that I didn't remember her being there because I even talked to her and wrote things down for her. It was a very strange experience.

I'm just hopeful it never happens again. And I hope it doesn't happen to anyone else here. Everyone stay healthy and have a good new year!

We were all so worried and scared for you. I hated to think of you being so sick. Glad you got a flu shot, but did your doctor tell you to get a pneumonia shot too? That is only every 5 years, I think. I get both.

Happy New Year, Cady. Keep getting stronger and healthier. You're gonna have a lot of movies to see in 2012!

Oh yeah, what the heck did Zefron do for New Years Eve? LOL

[ehs_wildcats]

I think we had discussed the pneumovax but idt anyone thought I should get it. I can't remember why but there was a reason. They do watch me pretty carefully though. I was getting sick easily at the beginning of the fall but now things are pretty stable. I'm very good at washing my hands a lot.

I can't wait for all these movies!

And idk what he's up to but hopefully he wasn't doing anything too crazy lol.

You know, I don't know if I ever saw a post saying that you were ~back, so every time I've seen a post here, I've wondered if it was you, and how you were doing. I'm very glad that you got through your illness, and I'm happy to see that you're on the mend and writing so positively about it. Wishing you happiness and nothing but good health in 2012, and thanks a million for keeping us up-to-date with Zef news! ♥

Thanks and you too! <3
