I just do not know how to start this post. THis post is about a man that has had a great influence on my life. I am talking about my dad in law,HIs real name is Clifford but ever since I met him he has asked me to call him Ken-or dad.
Ken is 71 yrs old and has been sick for the past 12 or so yrs. HE use to be a heavy drinker and that in the most part has gotten him to where he is now.
He lost his kidney to cancer a few yrs back.ANd has been going down hill for the last 6 months. He has COPD and I am almost certain that his body is full of the cancer.
My husband is a person that likes to deny things like this as many other things. His dad is DYING......
We went yesterday to see him as the hospital that he is in was closed as they had that flu bug. SO yesterday was the first time that we were able to see him in almost 1 month. I mean we would call and talk to him on the phone to let him know that we were stil out here.But that has not been enough I guess. He is slowly slipping away from us. Yesterday when I saw him I couldn't believe that it was him he had lost some weight.For a man that use to weigh almost 400 lbs I couldn't believe that this was him.
I am sorry I am a little stuck for what I want to say here so please bare with me.
I know that his life on this earth is coming to a end.I just wish I knew how to handle this. I lost my best friend Eleanore last AUg.7th and I am still getting over her death.
I am unsure if I will be able to handle another one.
I had another blogger on here tell me to try and remember the good times. Well KEn was quite a joker. HE always had a joke that he would catch you on .Like this. He would always ask HAve you ever smelled moth BAlls and you would say Of course why?? Then he would hit you with the punch line HOw in the hell did you ever get their wings apart...
SO if I t seems like I am not here no worries ok.. I am just away burying my dad in law...
Keep safe and stay warm.
