Part of the reason for my lack of posts as of late are that both my parents are in the hospital … in opposite ends of the same hospital … with different forms of cancer. Yesterday I arranged for dad to finally be able to visit mom for a while, and we got the two of them together for an hour or so. Of course after 55 years of marriage they should be able to get together more often than that, and I hope that happens this week.<\/p>\n
Dad’s 85 and mom’s 78. You can see in the above photo where dad lost the last 1\/4″ of his thumb to a tablesaw a few years ago.<\/p>\n
