measi's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- *sigh* LGM called tonight to update me on his dad's situation. Poor guy. His dad has terminal stage cancer. The docs can't tell how long he's been in it, so they can't even give him the "positive" 3-6 month estimate on length for his dad to live. *sigh* He's going into his office tomorrow to talk to the HR department and see if he can either be transferred down to the company's Tampa office, or if he can take a leave of absence. Otherwise, it looks like he's going to quit his job because he will probably have to move to Florida to take care of his mom anyway. I'll probably be helping him get from Boston up to Manchester, where there's a free plane ticket (requiring him to fly out of Manchester) waiting for him. LGM's at a stage that I'm terrified of finding myself in with my grandparents in the coming months. Only this is his DAD. That generation closer has got to make a huge difference. I don't know what to say, or what to do... but I need to just be there for him and to give him the energy he needs to hang on. ((((LGM)))) 7:56 a.m. - 28 January 2003 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
