That was so emotional, Rebecca, I could feel your pain, your nerves. It was such a relief when you did speak to your dad and he remembered you. I know these things are hard, but you did well. I'll watch for your next part. :)) Sandra xx

Comment from Teri7
This is another very well written and interesting chapter you have penned. It must be hard not knowing from day to day what is going to happen, but there that is where trusting the Lord and Knowing He is right there and never leaves. That is a beautiful picture of your sisters and dad. Thank you for sharing my friend. love and blessings, Teri

Oh thank you so much. Yes, trusting the Lord, is a step by step thing. I tend to want to know everything FIRST, lol. That's not trust. Thanks for reading along and for giving me a 5 star. That means a lot. Hugs
Comment from scongrove
Fantastic writing, my friend! I have to say, as I read along with your posts, you make it so descriptive, so real and so emotional. This is your calling. I believe from reading all your new posts, that this is what you enjoy writing about. And that's your experience in life. I find all of them easy to follow and very heartfelt. I really look forward to reading what has happened. You write in a way that keeps the reader drawn into your story. Your personality comes out too. I can just hear your voice telling the story and all the expressions on your face.
Thank you for sharing!
Always your fan,
Shana :)

Troubled times.
Cancer is a hard road to hoe.
...
This was well written and rich in Theme and Imagery.
It read well and Flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly!
...
My sister Carolyn...
(Whom was 14 years older than me)
I remember her well.
From the time she bathed as a baby to the family Catholic High School Graduation picture.
She wore a White blouse with her page girl haircut. So beautiful!
...
She passed away about a decade ago from multiple brain cancer.
...
Thank God there's not much Cancer in my Family History.
But it goes way back to 1914.
...
My Father Edward's older sister Emily.
Whom died from what they called back then..
"The Blood Disorder."
And, back then she was only about 8 years old.
Which today would be a course Leukemia.
...
Thanks
And God Bless you, your brother, and Dad.

Comment from juliaSjames
Your writing is honest and truly powerful because of this quality. It's super difficult to cope with the health and other concerns of aging parents. Underneath the anxiety is fear of losing them. At times turning away seems the best course but it never is. Believe me.
May the Almighty watch over you and your loved ones.
Blessings Julia

Comment from Lil' Mormon Boy
Such a heartfelt story of an aging parent. I thought your writing was super. A child could have followed along with little to no problem at all.
I appreciated the story of his children stepping up to see to the recovery of their father.
Nice Job.
Thanks for Sharing.

Comment from papa55mike
Those first weeks home after a heart attack is so stressful. I was so nervous bringing my wife home and falling was the biggest concern. What a wonderfully written story. It gets easier as time goes on. Your family is in my prayers.
Have a great day and God bless.

Comment from Mary Kay Bonfante
This is a beautiful journal, bravely written. It's not an easy journey you're taking with your Daddy. It's clear that you love him to the moon, and back!
I loved what you wrote here (even though I'm not going through your struggles and I wouldn't want to! I have other ones):
"I'm determined to get to the place where I live in the truth of
'not letting my heart be troubled'. But until then, it's a day by
day, sometimes hour by hour, effort."
That really spoke to me.
Here was a little spag:
That bugged me. I know its Mom --> it's Mom
It's so good that you're doing this. I love the prayer that you included at the end. May God give your Daddy his miracle! In Jesus' Name, Amen!
