My dear beloved friends at E2:
I haven't been noding nor really checking in for quite some time. Sadly, my
dad's gone into Hospice and it's only a matter of weeks before his demise. He's
getting weaker and weaker and has given up his wonderful attitude. There's just
nothing anyone can do to cheer him up; he feels so weak.
I see him every day for at least two hours. The tension my trips (an hour
there and back, too) has caused in my marriage and work-life is incredible.
Thus, I just wanted to check in with everyone and tell you that I'm doing the
best I can (and praying a lot - for strength).
I miss you all and will return as soon as things get back to a semblance of
normalcy in my life.
Love and best regards,
Shaogo
