My sister flew into Rochester at the end of November. This is kinda' fuzzy....don't remember anything....other then she (sister) stayed at our friends place in Rochester. As a matter of fact....I don't know how she got to the hospital....or how she got back to their home! My mind (brain) wasn't clicking then....it would take more time (months....gulp....years...gulp, gulp....forever)!
My dad drove over from the Lansing Michigan area. About 570 miles....through snow! 77 years old....a good man! I was fuzzy then too. What I do remember is that my dad took me downstairs in the hospital to a....chapel....a beautiful 'mini' cathedral! He stood up during the service....and told the priest to pray for me. And I cried! I cried a lot....overly sensitive....probably....still do!
I still can't believe that he drove home during a snowstorm! My dad passed away on October 6th, 2013. Miss him dearly....as I do my mom....love them both!
My dear wife said her parents came to Rochester days after I got there. Good people! Honestly....I don't remember anything regarding her parents! My father in law told me some stories about me....I don't know that any of them were true!
Your father sounds much like mine...what a wonderful gift from the Lord. Such a hole in my life there will be when God takes him home. Perhaps you'll have wisdom for me then, Steve...if you will.
