***YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWNNN*** Just got up from a nice long nap :) I hung out in the mom cave a good 3 hours or longer today, then came in and napped :D We've eaten leftovers all day long, so I haven't had to cook the first meal today...I smell a tradition brewing :lol:

Unfortunately the phone is what woke me. My mom called to tell me that they're airlifting Joe to Memphis. The doctor was giving him protein in his IV to sustain him, and then for whatever reason that has triggered his kidneys to shut down again. I just don't see how he could pull through now. He has double pneumonia, just had cancer surgery a few months ago to remove a tumor, now kidneys are shutting back down, and he can't even eat...I just don't know. He's in his mid seventies, so I don't know how much his body can take. I hate seeing him suffer...it's just sad, and it sucks. *sigh* I dunno what to think anymore, one minute he's showing signs of getting a bit better, then the bottom falls out of that theory the next day with something new...so frustrating :/

That can be rough. My parents are getting up there in age, and I dread the thought of either of them getting sick like that.

My grandma is older than Joe...she picked up her a younger man after divorcing my real grandpa ;) She has been in waning health for MUCH much longer, and she is taking this so hard. My male parent is actually just a couple years younger than him, and just went through cancer treatments/surgery too. Joe had an accident when he was younger which affected his legs and hips, but he has been relatively healthy other than a slight limp for years and years. He is just going down so fast it's mind boggling...and unexpected that it'd be him rather than a few others who've had worse health issues lately. Life is so weird. They're gathering the family in...it's just not looking good for him. :(

:hugs I went through stuff like that with both my parents. Both mine are passed from health problems when I was in my 20s. Mom was always sick after cancer and dad went quick downhill after she went. He passed from a perforated ulcer. That was fixing to be 3 years ago.

Wow sorry Rebecca...I still have both my parents and my grandma and Joe. I never had either of my biological grandpas around for long. Mom's dad died when I was 3. Joe and I were never close, but he's all I had in the way of a grandpa :hu

Pinky...it is nerve wracking when they yoyo. We all have to die eventually and sometimes I just wish it were quicker and less painful for folks. I mean he has had a good life, long and productive, and it really just sucks to watch him suffer like he has been. I truly think that's why grandma didn't want him to have the feeding tube, she wants him to go in peace.
