Flight delays

My flight from San Francisco to Philadelphia was delayed by bad weather so I didn’t arrive until well after midnight. Today I’m going to see Dad at the hospital. He’s being moved from the hospital to a rehab facility today so he can strengthen his legs enough to walk again. The doctor told my sister yesterday that he probably won’t ever walk on his own again since his cancer is stage 4 and spreading rapidly. Today we have to decide whether to move him into assisted living or to bring him home with 24 hour care. He desperately wants to come home so we’ll do what it takes to comfort him.

My wife Ellen called last night and said her mother was admitted to the hospital yesterday with kidney failure. She’s in critical condition and there are no children near to help out with her father who needs constant attention. Both Ellen’s parents and my parents live far from their children and it’s time to get them closer.

I’m off to the hospital now to see Dad and hopefully get him home as soon as possible.
