I think it may be a good possibility that we may have to cancel our Grand Gathering for July. You all were so helpful a while back when I had alot of questions about my Dad and getting him the right equipment that he would need. We have just found out that his prostate cancer has moved into his spine and they give him 6 months to a year. Then to top that off we just got the rotten news that my Mom has inoperable lung cancer (stage 3B) and they give her 14 months. Life really stinks sometimes and I know there is probably someone out there that is worse off than myself but right now I find that a little difficult to believe. I am so ready for a mental breakdown. All responsibility is on my shoulders. I have 2 other sisters but they seem to let it all fall on me. My Dad is coming home from the skilled nursing facility on Friday and hospice is coming in to help out. I would love so much to take the 2 of them to Disney but my Dad has so many issues that it is totally impossible. He can only sit in his wheelchair for maybe an hour at a time and even that is pushing it. So putting him on a 3 hour plane trip is out of the question. Plus my Mom starts chemo and radiation therapy on Monday and I don't know how she is going to be after all this. So sorry to vent like this but I think sometimes when you put things in writing it makes it feel a tiny bit better.
