The Return of the Return


All right!!!! I get the idea!

Sheesh!

Those of you who have been screaming about my lack of blogging activities lately can finally stop! I'm back, okay? So lay off of the e-mails! I'm serious.

Actually.......

not one person has written to me about not posting here. Not one. No one's complained. No one's asked how I'm doing. Traffic on my blog slowed to trickle. In fact, people who have known me years have started struggling to forget my name. I'm fading from the real world. I'm that guy in that one episode of the Twilight Zone who lost his identity and his own mother didn't know who he was.

Oh well.

Here's the latest news on my Mom - she's doing quite well. Her oncologist seems to have hit on a good combination of drugs that can control the symptoms of her chemotherapy. She's starting to get stronger, and she looks good. The only worry that I've got now is what's going to happen in about a month when the drugs in her chemo cocktail are changed. She's tolerated what's happening quite well compared to how others have fared. I'm really hoping that that continues.

Dad continues to struggle, and Mom continues to struggle with helping him. It's a bad situation all around. She's been handling pretty much everything for him. Rita and I have been called to do little. Mainly, provide a couple of meals a week. Mom's been doing everything else. That's a ton of work on top of recovering from breast cancer. I'm very concerned about where this is all going and how long what's going on now can be sustained.

Please keep praying everyone.
