Some of you know, most of you don't ...
In August, my step father was given 6 months to finish his battle with cancer. In November, my wife and I moved them to a duplex 3 houses down the block from us so that we could keep an eye on them and make sure they were getting decent care. My step father never made it to the duplex. He has been in a hospital bed in my dining room since November 14th. My loving wife has nutured him and given him 5 weeks of care he would have never received anywhere else. The end is very close, now. Thanksgiving and Christmas has been consumed with this. Along with our 27th wedding anniversary and my birthday. Consequently, we both need a vacation ... I was thinking around Valentine's day or a little later in the spring. I have a few relatives that live in SoCal and I thought we might drive out there. How many of you guys live along the I10 region between DFW, Texas and San Bernadino? |

Sorry to hear about how rough it's been this year.
Cancer got my grandfather who had a similar resume to your father when I was too young to remember. Remember all the stories so you can tell everyone how he's a helluva guy. Good luck and best wishes. |
