Hey there, I've been trying to find a solid answer to these questions with no luck: Was Donald canonically raised by Grandma Duck? And, if so has anyone ever clarified what happened to Hortense and Quackmore? Also I know there are a few comics out there talking about Donald's childhood and I was wondering if you could recommend a few.

The problem with ‘canon’ can usually be summarized with the saying, “too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the broth”. You’ve got your Don Rosa, Carl Barks, Elisa Penna, Vic Lockman, Marco Rota and many, many others, all of whom have had a chance to write Duck family comics and input their own take on canon. Was Donald canonically raised by Grandma Duck? Yes, in a few cases we can trace back to instances that show little baby Donald Duck with Grandma Duck. This Is Your Life, Donald Duck, a book from 1960, shows Grandma Duck raising him.

I believe we also get from this book the reasoning behind why Donald wears a sailor hat; apparently he bonks his head on the ground like that because he hates the silly bonnet Grandma put on him. She takes him to see a naval ship one day, he keeps bonking his head on the deck but in doing so he alerts the sailors that the bulkhead is full of water through the unusual sound his head was making against the deck. As thanks, one sailor gives Donald his cap and poor Donald never has to wear that silly bonnet again. 

Now both This Is Your Life, Donald Duck and another comic called Happy Birthday, Donald or From Egg to Duck were both written by Marco Rota, who was stuck on the concept of Donald being ‘found’ by Grandma Duck and raised from an egg. Rota didn’t care for the concept of Della and never acknowledged her existence so to him Donald doesn’t have a twin sister. Of course that also means he didn’t believe there was a Hortense or Quackmore to conceive baby Donald. 

Unfortunately at this point in time there aren’t any comics that go into any sort of explanation behind the current location or circumstance Hortense and Quackmore are in. From The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck we know they were a real couple and they’re the parents of Donald and Della Duck but no one’s given us anything to go on where they are now or what happened to them.

Right now the Netherlands is releasing one page comics going over a lot of baby Donald’s first experiences (Donald’s Eerste ...), a lot of which include little Della, Gladstone and Fethry. They’re cute, so far there’s been one on finding his first Easter Egg, his first dance lesson, competing with Della is prominent in a few of them. Those are definitely worth finding if you can, though you might need to have them translated from their original Dutch. yourstrulychitchat here on tumblr has a few uploaded.

At least its non-invasive. These are the easiest to go in, get fixed, and then leave. Wished my surgeries had been the same so I feel for you, my child. Just take deep breaths and repeat the old mantra: This too shall pass.

Oh goodness. Please take all of the internet hugs and good wishes for a smooth surgery and a speedy recovery. I hope you manage to find a way to distract yourself. Maybe some writing and some tea? Or, well, imaginary tea, if you have to limit your fluids.

al-spudnik replied to your post “[[MOR] Everything’s in order for tomorrow – laundry done, apartment...”

Sending every hug I've got. You have every right to be scared - it's a scary thing! Recognize the fear comes from a healthy place and it's okay to be scared for a bit. Sometimes that helps me deal with fear - kinda putting it in its proper place. In the meanwhile, surround yourself with good warm distractions, and we'll all be here for you when you get back! ((HUGS))

Thank you all for the good thoughts, and kind wishes, and sweet words! Things are going well so far -- I am sleepy and sore, but I am home with my cat and with enough soup to float a small armada, and I am sending you all so many hugs. 

You are all wonderful and I am so grateful to know you. <3<3

   Congrats! Hey if it works please feel free to send me the recipe. Panera’s Broccoli Cheddar soup is the best! X3    

It was actually very good! It’s a bit of work and makes about 3 full bowls. I admit, I haven’t measured anything while cooking in a long time, so I didn’t follow this exactly, but it tasted like Panera to us!

Anxiety sucks and I'm so sorry you're going through this. As someone who's had a lot of surgeries in her life (about 12), I can tell you honestly that waiting for the procedure to happen is the worst part. Post-op sucks, but there's always that feeling of relief when it's over and all you have to do is recover. I know that's not much of a comfort, especially when your brain feels like it's on overload, but I hope it helps a little bit. *hugs* <3

probablylostrightnow replied to your post “[[MOR] Dear Brain:  I would really, really appreciate it if you...”

*all the hugs* It will be all right.

Sending huge hugs your way. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you next weekend. In the meanwhile, take care of yourself best as you can. And if there's anything anyone can do to help take your mind off it for a while, say the word. (I don't think anyone's ever objected to a request to "flood my submission box with cute animals," and I doubt they'd start now.) <3

All love to you, Bee. Just remember, these surgeons do this every day. You're in good hands and you have all the positive thoughts and energies of your hundreds of followers flowing to you, doubly so on Thursday. You'll be outta there before you know it and then all you have to do is heal. Deep breaths, little girl, you WILL be fine ^_^

al-spudnik replied to your post “[[MOR] Dear Brain:  I would really, really appreciate it if you...”

I'm SO sorry, I wish I could do something to distract you! Looks like you have some good outs (games, reading, kitty) I've had several friends undergo major surgeries recently - it SUCKS and you have every right to feel nervous and upset. Don't feel bad about feeling bad (cuz that can make you feel WORSE) but remember to love yourself extra gentle, and take time whenever you need it. Do lots of stuff just for YOU this week. I'll be thinking of you. (lots of hugs)

*adds extra hugs and glares at anxiety* let me know if there's anything I can help with, Bee, seriously. I can't be there physically, but I can text/email/whatever if you need a distraction <3

I could just kiss all of you (and hug you, and probably cry on you because you’re all so wonderful). Thank you so much for putting up with all of my weird brain posts, and my whining, and for having patience while I try to work through all my weird life-tangles right now. 

Luckily this procedure won’t be too invasive, and fingers crossed it will cut down on my chronic pain -- but good lord I am not looking forward to it. 

Thank you all, for being so lovely, and kind, and patient, and giving. Come over and I’ll bake us pound cake when I get up and walking again. <3<3<3

(Or if you’re ever in MA, let me know and I’ll bake for you then.)

Hi there! I just wanted to ask real quick, do you happen to have a cast heart photo from the Plaza Ice Cream and Bake shops? I know we took one. If not it's cool. ^^

I don’t!!  I never came across one.  I’m still looking for a couple more photos to flesh out my next post so if anyone has any, feel free to submit!!

[daylighteclipsed]

Oh gosh! I've been reading all your ideas for that Inverse Falls AU and I absolutely adore it! Plus your grasp on the Pines Twins and their amazing relationship is so on-point! I really REALLY hope you do end up writing something on this au because I would love to post it on my Gravity-Falls-Public-Library blog, an archive dedicated to platonic GF fanfics. Of course if you don't that's cool too. I just wanted to pop in and say how much I love your idea.^^' Ok Im rambling now so bye!

Hi! Ahh I’m really glad you’re so into it!! That archive sounds amazing; it’s so hard to find good platonic fanfic!

I’m planning to write some stuff once finals are over next week…right now i’m pretty swamped…

you’re totally welcome to contribute any ideas you have if you want! i’m kinda making most of this au up as i go man aha

[cosmostellar]

What makes you say there will be three "everything changes" episodes on Gravity Falls? I'm not doubting you or anything I'm just curious as to your source. ^^

Oh no problem!
