Bad news from Baton Rouge this evening. My Mom called and said my 87 year old uncle has probably 2-3 days to live....cancer of the esophagus. My Mom also found out yesterday that she has a mild form of Parkinson's. Hand tremors. Mild or not...it's Mom. Controllable with meds but she's not young (81). Sucky evening.

Embrace your own sufferings on their behalf, and offer them up. Prayers for your strength and consolation, and for God to embrace them when their times come.

Thank you. I'm very much like her. We're both very optimistic people. She's probably the strongest person I know. Always upbeat even during the tough times. She's awesome!

I would usually make a sexual mom joke being it's the OT but I can't bring myself to it. Good luck and spend as much time possible with them.
