Dad Not So Good
With Hurricane Rita headed for Houston, everyone has been asking me about my dad. He and his wife have moved pretty far inland (an hour), so the effects of the hurricane should diminish by the time it reaches them. I don't know if they are making any preparations for it. Actually, he can't be of much help. We are going to try to call tonight.
Unfortunately, his condition is deteriorating. In fact, mentally, he is quickly returning to his pre-first-surgery state. His last two visits with the doctor were not good. They don't think the radiation is producing the results they expected. Beyond that, he is miserable and frustrated. He spends his days & nights mostly asleep and can't stay awake longer than 20 minutes at a time. Plus, his left leg is totally useless. For now, he is still wanting to fight the cancer. I've heard that his goal is to see the new grandbabies that are coming. One down, two to go. That seems a bit optimistic, but we'll see.

This blog is like a journal for me. It is also a way for my friends to keep tabs on me.
For people who don't know me, I come from a big family (3 brothers & 1 sister). We moved around a LOT, so I am not really from one particular place. I like to call Katy, Texas my home though.
Recent news, my Dad & Mother-in-Law were diagnosed with Terminal Cancer in April/May of 2005. My dad passed away 5-Dec-05 .
