Thank you for sharing all of this, it is good to keep up with you. I'm very glad to hear that J's health has improved, and I hope things continue to go better for her. Rooting for your throat to figure things out, too!
I occasionally feel bad that I don't really systematically update stuff about my life anymore (here or anywhere really) because there isn't a common place to communicate with the same people reliably, particularly not one with the kind of privacy protections I want. So I've kind of lost that reliable social proprioception we used to talk about and I'm still in touch with most of the people that I've gotten to know well, virtually, over the years, but it's not the same.
But things change, and I still have the capacity to check in with people, and I have a reliable group of local friends that I didn't have 10 or even five years ago.
