Some of you know this already, some don't. 3 weeks ago I took my father to
the hospital because he was feeling very ill. After a barrage of tests they
found he had a urinary track infection. But what we didn't know is that he
also had prostate cancer which spread into his bone marrow. A bone scan
disclosed that it was spread throughout his body and turned his bones into
being highly brittle. After a week in the hospital, we put him in St. Peters
Manor nursing home where the thinks he's getting better. We haven't told him
the severity of the situation - yet. While rotating him in bed they broke his
right leg just below the hip which further complicates things as surgery is out
of the question. (not their fault) Last Friday we bought the "pre-paid" funeral
at Baue in St. Charles. My sister from Ohio and I are tag-teaming our time
with him. It's now waiting for that inevitable phone call.

some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and
all are different colors ...
but they all have to learn to live in the same box.
