Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Good Morning, Pond -
Sitting at the hospital with the folks. Stepdad is back in the hospital on comfort cares only. He told us yesterday that he’s ready to be done fighting. He has nothing left to fight with. Mom is doing well. Him making the decision has lightened her load tremendously. She dreaded having to make that call herself.

Morning Pond, Bobbi so sorry about your step dad.

Morning Pond, Bobbi so sorry about your step dad.

Thank you. He has struggled for many years. He was a foundry worker and has silica in his lungs. He was diagnosed 16 years ago, and has had many scares over that time with his lungs. They’re worn out.

We lost our step Dad, had to go home to help Ma .. He was part of the family for 35 years a master carpenter. A fabulous cabinet builder, That really tore at him as he could not do it at the end anymore.. Going in and out of realty..

Good morning. Damp, dreary and cool on my lily pad. Yesterday was a busy day. Today I'm going to just chill - literally as well as figuratively.

Your pond looks like mine????

How much longer do they think he has?



It doesn't matter if it is expected. It is still a difficult time.
