2012 will be a Challenging Year.. A Year of struggle and A Year of Hope. Work is Changing so fast.. Its exciting, refreshing and frightening ...all at the same time.. Such is life. Mike is thru with all conventional medicine.. We are "on our own" basically for the remainder of his Cancer Journey. My Dad is deteriorating hour by hour, the hardening of his arteries make it very difficult for him to function daily. But, he still gets up , gets dressed and starts his day hopeful. Thats a blessing in itself. He makes it hard for me to lay down and give up. He cant hear, he cant speak most of the time, he has NO clue the conversations or the issues that swirl around him each day.. He prepares for his day dressed as handsome as a man can and then cruises thru the day oblivious to most of it. What makes him get up each morning and prepare himself for NOTHING. I am humbled every time I think of this... His will to live must out weigh the anguish he may or maybe doesnt feel.. I love him.
