Ex-wife update #2
Good news: They're going to send her home soon

Not so good news: Probably too soon - she's really not prepared to take care of herself; her son isn't in a position to do so; and the rest of her family isn't interested in the job.

Bad news: Because of this, she asked me if she could stay with me and my wife.

(Let me pause here for a moment to emphasize that there have been some seriously bad ideas in history. Custer's pursuit of a certain band of Indians. The Vietnam war. Paris Hilton. This ranks down there with the worst of them).

Really bad news: Instead, we have decided to help her make her own house more livable. This means work. More, this means cleaning, which is work I don't do for myself, let alone for other people. This was my wife's idea, incidentally - which makes it my idea.

Complication: it might have been home environmental issues that precipitated the pneumonia in the first place.

Anyone have any spare environment suits? Maybe I need to check with NASA.
