Jill I will especially keep you, dad, mom and family in prayer.

On the domestic front, that MG sure is a keeper, huh? (of course, his taste in women is better than his taste in paint colors, huh? Well, I said he was a "keeper," not perfect )

(((((Jill)))))

I am so sorry you and your parents are going through this. It is great that you found some good home health care to help out Mom. That is SO important! I also recommend excellent self-care, which includes (maybe) massage, dinner out w/ friends, just a little time to walk by yourself...anything to put a break in the intensity of caring for someone with cancer. I have done it twice.

Praying for strength and humor for you all as you go through this difficult situation.

Thanks, everyone!!! I can't tell you how much your support means to me.

My bedroom looks gorgeous!!! And......the 2nd one will be finished on Fri so only 1 more to go!!! Now.....MG is thinking about buying the vacant lot next to us. He doesn't want to sell this house until the market picks up, but.......he's starting to show some interest in building a house on the lot if he ends up buying it. YIPPEE!!!

Oooh, I wonder who his architect's influencer is going to be...hint hint?

Can we say, dream home?

Hey Jill:

Almost no PC time lately but wanted to say hi before I leave for BC this morning. I am thinking about you and sending support and strength to cope with your dad's illness. 3 years ago today I was in the same situation with my mom - it is SO difficult. Hang in there and do as much as you can - you will never regret it.

Cool about your bedroom and that MG is helping you. I just got new bedding and changed the art in my room - what a difference even that makes!

Anyway, I'll hopefully be able to check on you while I'm away.

Hugs,

Barb

Thanks, Barb, Karen & C2. Y'all are the bestest!!!

OK, my youngest bro is driving me crazy. He's such a negative, opinionated guy. He keeps saying things to me like, "YOU have to talk to mom about their will" YOU have to make sure that they won't lose all their money if my Dad goes into a nursing home, YOU have to force her to accept our gift of the babysitting service, YOU,have to talk to the doctor, YOU,have to make the parents understand that there's no hope and stop the chemo, YOU, yada yada yada. I want him to LEAVE ME ALONE!!!
My parents are not ready to accept that there's no hope, their will is all set, there's no chance they'll lose everything if he goes to a nursing home. I swear, he acts like everyone's stupid but him.

MG was laughing at me last night cuz while I was talking to bro, I was hitting my head against the wall repeatedly. Crimany, some people get crazy in a crisis!!!

Jilly,

I have to interject just one thought here. Something I put aside just special for when people are driving me that crazy and refuse to consider anything I have to say when they come to me whining.

There's a button on your phone that makes all the bad voices go away.

Just a thought.

Jilly Bean.

Your family is in my prayers.

I see it as your brother knows that YOU are the one that is smartest to make all these decisions.

His delivery of that is just sort of nutty.

Hope the head banging made you feel better.
