H's MLC - he is still lost but I found myself

[Mila]

Thank you Kissak, BM, Cyrena and Glam - thanks so much for your input...I still don't know what I will do, I think that I'll play it by ear....I would like to take the high road as Glam suggests, will feel D out and decide later.

Received a call from H, nobody can sound more depressed then he does now....I think that he was crying. Called to tell me that he showed some of his dad's test results to a doctor and he told him that his dad doesn't have even 2 months left, H needed to talk to about it, this is not his dad's oncologist so I suggested that H call him direct and see what it looks like...H said that he was thinking the same thing, we talked about his dad and some what if's....he obviously needed to talk....he is just so depressed and now this additional emotional burden with his Dad....I'm worried that this could break him. I really feel for him.

H called me again to report to me that he left a message for the oncologist, said he'll call me back when he knows more.

There was lots of feeling in our exchange and warmth and concern for his dad and I'm sure that H felt comforted by my words and support...looks like I'm still the first one he turns to for emotional support in time like this....I guess OW doesn't know and love his dad and can't offer the same level of support and understanding. Our history and family bonds are stronger.

Please everyone, remember my FIL in your prayers, thank you.
