Ah…parents. Bless them.

So I learned today that my Dad sent H a text on R U OK day (Sept 11). Apparently the convo went something like this:

Dad: Hi H. Today is R U OK day so I am reaching out to see if U R OK.
H: Thanks B. I'm OK. How are you, L and Ganb8te doing?
Dad: We're sad and depressed by your absence lately.

Errr….on the positive side H didn't blow off my Dad?!

(I had nothing to do with this - I was knee deep in Tanzania without internet/mobile access when this happened but H does't know that).

Actually this has been a really tough aspect to deal with. My folks have been SUPER supportive but are really saddened by all this and don't understand why we're not talking about it. I do think their inquiry to H was genuine. I stopped short of sending then Sandi's rules…
