Cruelty is not Welcome Here
2008-Feb-16, Saturday 22:00Ok... This is going to be short and sweet.... I might give more details tomorrow after I've rested. It's been a difficult day. Poor Little Star has been going back and forth between me and my daughter to comfort us by having us pet her.
My mom is in the ICU after undergoing emergency surgery early this morning. It's very serious. My dad was transported to Hospice this afternoon. His condition is such that there is not enough we can do to ensure his comfort. Mom was killing herself trying.
With all that is going on, my daughter and I do not have time or heart to deal what are by comparison very petty matters. We are busy watching a man we have both loved intensely every day we have existed die day by day, and his beloved wife of nearly 60 years is too sick to be with him. That by itself is cruel enough for us without having it inflicted on us elsewhere.
Today was Dad's 78th birthday. I don't know what tomorrow holds.
