I hate to be the 11th hour killjoy but my elderly Dad I had mentioned in a previous post managed to land himself in CCU. I honestly can't be 3 hours away. If you are of faith, please pray for him. If not, toast him with a scotch. Seriously, I was so looking forward to actually meet all of you but first things first. Sorry to bail on such short notice. :(

Jerry

Thank you all for your prayers and well wishes. Dad is OK but he isn't coming home. He is resting in long tem hospice now. How quickly things can change is such a short time. So I wanted to share a photo of the old man; it was taken Just before we put the car up for the winter several years ago.

again, thanks for all the thoughts.

Jerry,

  There will be other opportunities to meet up with Buicks. 
Time with your father is much more important.  God bless.

Dear Jerry and mid-60s Buick caregivers of all sorts,

Thank you all for your prayers and well wishes. Dad is OK but he isn't coming home. He is resting in long tem hospice now.

All I can offer you is my sympathies.  It has been a rough summer here at our house.  Health can degrade much faster than anyone would prefer.

How quickly things can change is such a short time. So I wanted to share a photo of the old man; it was taken Just before we put the car up for the winter several years ago.

There is a world after this one and it will be perfect in ways almost impossible to conceive of.  Nonetheless it won't be unfamiliar . . . after all, it will have Buicks in it!!  :angel4:

Cheers, Edouard
