Nobody Else Is Allowed to Die.

Over on the filk-uk list, Mich announced that her dad has been diagnosed with cancer of the liver and stomach.

After his tests came back, he went home and did his VAT tax form.

Lord, if it is Your will, please heal Mich's dad. We really need more people like him here on Earth, so that we can learn from his courage (or cussedness!). We've already had one terrible autumn, remember; and the UK filkers lost many relatives and friends afterward, and even one filker. If there is any way we can help, please let us know; we will gladly be Your instruments. But if you have a better idea and know Mich's dad would be better off with You, please help Mich and her family, and the whole UK filk community. Either way, please heal them and dry their tears, and so bring joy back to our songs. Amen.
