Dad on Deathbed


Wow. It's finally going to happen to me...the death of my father. You would think at my age (55) I would be ready for it...but nobody is ever ready for the death of a parent.

He has pneumonia, brought on because he can't swallow right (has parkinsons and strokes). It will not get better, only worse. So he is going home from the hospital to die at home, under the care of my mother and hospice.

Now I am in a waiting period. What day? How am I going to travel to Utah? I have no car, so I guess it's the bus.

Waiting is so hard.
