Hey Wii - I wonder if Rob and the Beibs will represent Canada at the Super Bowl??? Let's hope not.
BA - Hugs. I've been in your shoes. I know how hard it is. If he can't be in hospice (as happened with my Mom). Just make wherever he is the most comfortable & upbeat. My personal recommendation is to make sure family & friends know (as long as that is ok with him). It meant so much to my Mom that she had visits from people she loved, some she had not seen in a while. They made the effort to come. To pay their respects while she was still alive (some did this instead of flying to attend her funeral). It was hard - but it was meaningful.
As for you - is there any chance of taking a leave of absence and spending that time with your Dad? I lived near my Mom so balanced my career, raising kids and getting a divorce while Mom was dying but I still spent time daily with her and that's time I could never get back. My siblings did the same and my one out of town sister ended up taking the last week off (I flat out told her too) and thanks me for telling her to do it. I did not want any of us to live with regret.
Josh and I are going to the movies tonight to see Labour Day. I never got to see Saving Mr Banks (regret) but since this one starts tonight - Ashley offered to stay with Ryan so we can have dinner and a movie. We will not be together for Valentine's Day or our Anniversary (of dating) this year since I'm getting out of the North Pole ASAP.
