Sorry folks for not updating personal things. There is kind of a reason. Since I’m applying the “putting the blinders on” at work. Once I leave work, it simply stays there. Meanwhile, on a sad note, I have just received a text that a co-worker/friend (the guy who drives me to and from work a couple days a week). Things have turned for the worst in his life. I’m struggling with this news, as it brings up memories of my father.

My friend’s wife has been battling breast cancer for four years. This is the third time it has come back. The other week they went to the ER where she was diagnosed with pneumonia and admitted to a local hospital. A week later, she was sent to another hospital as her health had declined. After not seeing my friend for almost a week, he came to work later last night, so I got to chat with him. Apparently his wife’s prognosis is not good at all. I just received a text a couple minutes ago, they have decided to take her off life support. I have offered my friend my assistance in anything he may need in the coming days. But part of me isn’t sure if the reason is because her health has got better or the worst is about to happen (<–from my own experiences working in nursing homes, I have to believe it is for the worst, unfortunately).

This brings up issues of my past and my father. I think I have talked about it before. In the next couple of days or even tomorrow, I’ll expand on why I’m struggling with it. Meanwhile, I need to walk to work and have to leave in about ten minutes.

I’ll write more tomorrow.

There was a GoFund me page set up a while ago for the family – here (click link). If you can, I would ask you donate anything you can afford to help his family out in the future. Thank you for your consideration!
