First let me say that I am not posting updates to gain sympathy or points or anything else. There are two reasons for these posts: First, to update those who are my friends and are concerned. If you don't fall into that category then don't read them. Second, is to help me deal with things as they happen on a daily basis as I am so busy with my dad, and helping my step-mom, my grandmother, and being here for my son as well as working, I don't really have much of a chance to talk to anyone. This is my way of documenting and dealing with whatever happens as it happens. Am sure some will have nothing better to do than make some smart ass comment...And to you I say that I hope it helps make you feel a little bit better about yourself and your day to type hateful words about a crappy situation. Now on to the real reason for this update and I wish I had more to say but today was a little better for my dad...he had less pain finally but is getting enough Morphine to knock out a buffalo. His x-rays from Saturday showed nothing that could be causing him pain in his shoulder, back and hip. He did tonight have an MRI of his shoulder and spine and hip so maybe we will know more tomorrow. Am still holding out a little hope that most of this is degenerative bone disease from him being so stubborn and over doing things for years and years. Would be a lot better if the cancer hadn't spread to the bone like they think... That is about all I know so far... Thanks again to my friends, specially Goddess aka BlondeAquarius, Kelli2you, Hot, Wet N Dirty, Not_The_Doctor79, Witchesbrew, Tom G, PeachyKeenJellyBean, and BobbyT645...Your gifts, emails, kind words, and comments brighten my day, and you do it every day without fail.
