People of my age are not supposed to lose their parents yet. We are not that old. Our parents are not that old.
Mike's dad has been fighting cancer for almost a year now. At his last appointment, they told him the chemo isn't helping anymore. He has two more months.
TWO MORE MONTHS.
About Me
- Della
- Silly About Me things. I never know what to write here... "Hi! I'm Della!" is generic and boring...but I don't want to sound too cutesy or like I'm trying to write some ultra-interesting bio either. 'cause I'm not. I'm just trying to write something that in...hold on, let me check....1200 words or less will tell you about ME. Of course, if you really want to know more than you ever really want to know, click on the Things About Me category, and that should solve any curiosity issues you may have. Reading the posts would help too. and I've run out of time, by son is crying and my daughter is trying valiantly to distract him, but he's having none of it.....

Guys I hope you can take the time you have left to make some final memories to hold with you the rest of your life. I know that sometimes those final memories can be some of the most treasured and will be the things that you can look back on and truely cherish in the years to come. Mike I am truely sorry to hear of your pain.
I posted a comment here last night, but it is not here--hmmmm...
What I said is, I am glad that Mike and his Dad were able to get close, to find love and more important, respect, for one another the last year. This is SO IMPORTANT for the long term living with this. I love you guys, and will keep you and them in my prayers and meditations.
Yeah, I've gotten similar news about my father. *sends big virtual hugs to Mike and his family*
