Thank you all for your support.

His right lung is one huge tumor and the tumors have
even invaded his heart. They have given him a few days to go.

My daughter is "grasping at straws" and has the doctors putting him on dialysis and starting him on chemo to try to shrink the tumors to see if it helps. His liver is sclerosed (basically gone), his kidneys are still working but the tumors must be blocking his passing urine as he isn't putting any out, so they are trying dialysis to keep him strong enough to try the chemo.

I hope it works for her sake, but she is still honoring his DNR request.

She is in a hard place, please pray for her to get through this.

Thank you. Take care.

Thank you all so much. I just got home a bit ago. Russ is holding on but barely. Not expected to go much longer.

My daughter is in denial and trying to keep her family together. I know I will be making another trip very soon.

Thanks Pat and Terry, I appreciate your support.
Queene, a beautiful poem, thank you.

Thank you to everyone else. Please keep my daughter and grandchildren in your prayers to get through this time.

Take care. flowerforyou :heart: flowerforyou

I am hooked on the show myself, about the only reality show I watch. Kari Ann is a totally spoiled brat.

Oh, Tool Academy is a kick too.

My grandma died when my dad was 12, and my grandpa was my favorite person in the world. He gave me some of her broken jewelry odds and ends when I was in about 4th grade. I later had some of the necklaces fixed. One of them is my favorite of all time, a clear and green crystal necklace. She died in 1939, so it is old, and I love it. Have some old dishes too, and his old dresser from the 40s, and a dining table from the same era.

Some of us learn quicker than others. :wink: laugh


Why do the slow ones gravitate toward Illinois and Indiana?

Followup concept -- since I discovered that the poodle is actually a baby seal, how about this --

A team of corporate executives, in suits and ties and full-blown businessman regalia, up in Alaska, hitting baby seals over the head with little tiny bottles of dishwashing liquid. Of course the bottles are too small to do any damage, so the seals just ignore the evil businessmen. But then Sally Struthers shows up and shoots all of the deranged suit-wearers with the gun that she learned how to fix many years ago by taking that Gun Repair class she used to do the commercials for.

The seals are saved (although the only real danger was that a bottle might break and make them smell like Country-Fresh Breeze Scent or something), Big Business is thwarted, and Sally gets some kind of award and maybe some Arby's coupons.





Absolutely genius!!! Careful, Lex, I may see a new career in your future, writing commercials for dishwashing liquid ads. And just think of the commission you would get on the sale of the dishwashing liquid, or maybe they would give you a "free" lifetime supply, hmmmm. noway Nah, go for the cash!!! :wink:

Poodles are smart but like to be spoiled too.
Their haircuts (about every 2 months) cost $45.
My dog and cat will eat each other's food, so why buy
separate food for them???
There is a constant power trip going on between her and the cat
over who "rules the roost."
But they also play and chase each other around the house.

She did figure out quickly that if she jumped up in my
friend's chair when he was in the kitchen getting food, that
he would throw her a piece of food on the floor to get her out
of the chair, so that is their "new trick" now.




It took my ex-wife months to learn that one!

I really don't want to go to the clinic and pick up the
tape that I have to type tonight. Grrrrr.

We don't have White Castles around here, other than in
the freezer case at the store. Maybe someday I will
find out what one tastes like in "real life." Hmmmmm.

Great write Lex.
I inherited my mom's poodle when she died, yeah, the
luck of the draw. She had spoiled the silly mutt rotten.frustrated

Would you believe the dog could only be fed deli chicken from
one certain store and then it had to be cut into bite-sized
pieces?? Yeah, well, ummm, after mom went into the nursing home
the dog found out what dog food was. I know, "my bad." biggrin

My granddaughter and daughter named her "ChiChi" -- then later
found out it means "breast" in Spanish, well it is appropriate,
after all she does act like a "boob" half the time.:laughing:

She hasn't learned to levitate yet, but does bounce up and down
off the floor like a damn ball when I get home from work, really
annoying. shocked
