In Honor of Billy Syndrome:
Edited on Thu Aug-25-05 09:31 PM by rbnyc
It's too early to say "in memory"--he's still on life support, which is just so painful because he's not coming back.

Anyway, I just wanted to share some links, photos and songs. Some of these links are in my other thread, but I wanted to put them together here.


In Honor of Billy Syndrome

SONGS

WHO'S FLYING THE PLANE? (We're Going Down) (First song on this WFMU playlist)

Take The Chicken From The Man And Give It To The People

Unhinged (first full song on playlist)

2. Hi.
I don't know about his blood pressure. (Saw your post before.)

Happy Birthday, by the way.

It's so sad. He's totally brain dead. He has only one living relative that I know about, his brother. He's here now, in NYC. He lives in North Carolina or something. All Billy's bandmates are together right now. I feel really left out. Billy was my friend too. But they didn't want to come here, 'cause they want to smoke and there's no smoking here.

The baby's been in beed for a couple hours now. He's been so sweet tonight. Cliff says he's been sweet all day, sensitive boy.

Love you, sweetheart.

xxx
ooo

Rene

4. Wow
The cover of his most recent release is chilling. :(

I'm sure I have some magazines with interviews with him in them. When I finally sort through all that stuff, I'll pull them out. :(

7. I KNOW!
My husband pointed that out when I came home tonight.

Please let me know if you find any reviews. That would be so cool.

Thanks!

8. I definitely will.
BTW, how are you feeling physically? (I know you're not having a great day, clearly). I remember you telling us about some health problems. :hug:

9. Yeah, I'm in the middle of having a lot of tests done.
I have a bunch of junk wrong throughout my digestive sytem. My doctor is particularly concerned about my risk for esophageal cancer, but I have so much swelling, he can't sample the tissue he's worried about. We're going to try again in a couple weeks.

I just did the camera pill-that was quite an experience. I'll get results from that on 9/8. So I'm just waiting to find out which and how many disease systems are at work inside me right now.

I've been pretty sick, and also very busy. This whole thing is such a shock because I've been wrapped up in my own problems lately. It's just so unexpected.

Thanks for asking.

10. Best of luck to you.
Waiting around for test results is no fun at all. And again, I'm so sorry for your shocking loss. :hug:

12. Was just taking time to look at some of this...
...stuff again. Thought I'd give it one more bump.

I just called home. The sitter answered. My husband didn't go to work today and hasn't gotten out of bed. :(

I want to go home.
