Here it is, 2 days before Thanksgiving,
and my Dad has gone back into the hospital.
We are not sure if it is pneumonia or something else.
I am abandoning my Thanksgiving preparations today in order to be there with him.
As my Mom used to say, "If it doesn't bleed, don't worry about it."
I was so sure Pop would be able to be with us on Thursday.
He is 90, and each celebration with him is a blessing.
I am going to keep hoping that he can be.
My Dad, below, enjoying our family grape harvesting
back in September, behind That Old House.
And eating grapes!
So I'll un-cross my fingers long enough to type, and make a few phone calls,
and drive -- but prayers and good wishes are much appreciated for his recovery.

Cass,
ReplyDeletePrayers are being said for your Dad right now!
Your dad looks AMAZING for his age!
ReplyDeleteWhere are the wrinkles???
I would take a guess that he never smoked as that does put the age lines on you.
I hope you will still be able to hold your planned meal at your house and pray your dad gets home to you soon.
(((warn hugs))) to you and yours
My fingers are crossed for you too...it is such a blessing to have parents with us during the holidays..
ReplyDeleteCass, praying for your dad and you lovey.
ReplyDeleteOh Cass you know how we are all thinking of you and your family and rooting for your dad. Big hugs.
ReplyDeletePraying for your Dad Cass and that you will have a blessed Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteDidn't you have someone in the hospital just about the same time last year?
ReplyDeleteI'll be thinking of you!
Your kitchen remodel is gorgeous. Hoping that your father will be with you this Thanksgiving. It's so important to be with family.
ReplyDeleteOh Cass Sweetie...
ReplyDeleteI am so sorry to hear that your sweet Daddy has taken ill. Pneumonia is nothing to shake a stick at. It took my voice permanently in May, and I will forever be leery of any colds that come my way. (I will be storming the heavens with prayers for your Daddy sweet friend.) Please keep us posted. Remember now, this is only Tuesday and Thursday is still 2 days away, we will pray he is home in time for Thanksgiving dinner with you all. He looks so good in the photo to be 90. What a blessing he is Cass.
I will be watching for an update. Many hugs and SO much love, Sherry
Cass~

Oh Cass- I know you must be anxious and sad about your Dad's health. I am saying a prayer for him right now. I hope he is out and can enjoy Thanksgiving with you. Don't worry about having everything done and having everything perfect...time with your Dad is more important than anything. Hugs- Diana
