Like many of you, I have been thinking of asiangrrlMN (aka Minna) since John’s post went up yesterday.
I just checked Caring Bridge, and I see that they took Minna for the MRI at 5:30, so her family should know more soon. I think that was 5:30 central time. asiangrrlMN was always a light here on Balloon Juice, and though I don’t tweet or do Facebook, it’s pretty clear that it’s true everywhere she goes.
Let’s send some light her way.

I’ll be putting up a political post in a minute, unless someone else beats me to it.

Go asiangrrlMN!! Come back – we all need you.
Aimai
I have not been able to stop thinking about her and her family since I saw the news. I am hoping for some good news. It’s too cruel otherwise. She is such a lovely person.
JMG
I cannot say I am as familiar with her as others here, but she has every good wish I have and if there’s something more concrete than that to do I will jump to the head of the line.
mali muso
I’m not religious but I am certainly holding her in my thoughts. Sending my wishes for the best possible outcome.

Hoping for the very best for Minna. When she recovers – and I am very deliberately saying when, not if – I hope we can have some sort of celebratory thread in her honor.

@Aimai: It’s been so nice to see you here lately. You are missed.
scav
She is indeed memorable — definitely has all our thoughts. All our chainsaws as necessary too, rusty or otherwise.
WereBear
What terrible news. Will dwell in hope.

My good thoughts and good energy to Minna and her loved ones

@Aimai: I do not know if she was active on any other boards outside of BJ but if you know any former Juicers on LGM I certainly would appreciate you spreading the word if you haven’t already.

@Yutsano:
Do her Facebook friends know? I assume so, but I don’t play in that sandbox any more.

Positive thoughts… pleasepleaseplease.

Keeping her and her family very close in my thoughts.

Keeping hope alive.
Aimai
@WaterGirl: I do read here every day! Think of me like the cousin who snoozes on the couch all through thanksgiving.
WaterGirl
@Aimai: Ha! I’m glad to know you’re hovering, anyway.
But your comments were always great, and interesting, so I do miss them.
Mandarama
@WaterGirl:
I agree—Aimai, it’s so good to see your nym here! ☺️
Suzanne
I’ve been thinking about Minna all day. She’s so awesome. Very best wishes and thoughts for her.
stinger
@Mandarama: Thirded!

@stinger:
Fourth! Which is not an auspicious number in some countries some Asian Grrrls come from, so I hope there’s a five soon. More seriously, sending all the good wishes to Minna for a full and steady recovery.
Jean
I continue to send all good wishes for Minna’s recovery!
WaterGirl
Well, fuck.
opiejeanne
@WaterGirl: Agreed.
WaterGirl
OT, but I will add this here in case anyone hasn’t seen it yet.

Brother here giving the latest update.
7:10 pm Here at the hospital, and she is responsive to commands. She can open her eyes and squeeze finger, and answer questions with a nod or shake of the head. This is positive news.! Was able to zoom call with Julie and Ian.
