Sorry to hear this.Update on dad. After 12 days in icu his condition was nothing by mouth (ever) due to aspiration. So he said no thanks and since he was going against Drs orders was pushed out of icu and the hospital into hospice. His needs are too much for me to manage at home.
Really got expensive fast! Am hoping to move him to a VA affiliated nursing home closer to home. His current placement is nice but costs $500 a day (out of pocket) and I am betting he will last longer than the 3 months give er take the Drs give him.
Has been a roller coaster ride for sure. Nice thing is he has seen more family these past 2 weeks than he has since our last family reunion.

Enjoy your family folks. Things can change in a instant.
Yeap. Anyone recall the (shall we say, interesting) introduction I had to the new neighbour about a month or so ago? well, he's just been diagnosed with terminal cancer, has three months they reckon. And slightly but not fully related to departing family members, but certainly to how things ca change...recall I mentioned the Canadian niece who got her school put on lockdown a while ago? Well, she has gone off the rails, ran away from home, staying in a drug house, and last night got delivered home by the police on some sort of custody arrangement because she is now pending charges of assault, robbery, etc. The law, I have to say, in Canada is utterly phucked up. Sister and BIL have phuck-all rights and if she doesn't want to come home (the gangs, pimps, and dealers will make sure of that) parents can't make her. Best they could do is go through the process of having her committed on mental health grounds. She's 14. Let that **** sink in for a minute. 14. I'm not trying to start a political discussion an ruin this thread with it but you good Canadians on here need to associate and take your country back before everywhere up there slides into the same dysfunctional liberal sinkhole that has swallowed too many cities and lives already.Enjoy your family folks.
