[QUOTE="lmf64, post: 301807, member: 7736"] Blondie, I too am glad to hear from you, even if it's not happy news. My dad was diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) about the same time as difficult child was born. Last winter when they were in AZ he was hospitalized (I wasn't told till he was home in MN) and at that time they diagnosed mesothelioma. I am hoping that we can at least get difficult child through school before we have to say good-bye. I told him that if he's hospitalized again, I had better be called immediately or I would be persuing a medical power of attorney so they have to call me to treat him. He was in the hospital for over a week! He's still young, only 64 now, and getting a poa will be a fight, but hey maybe the threat will make them call me. I could be there when Bug shows up. I have no fear of difficult child's. I just did battle with a 6 foot tall, 250 pound difficult child to leave the house with his skills worker. Come on kid, you're going to do something fun! I have been known to stand in the doorway and refuse to allow him to leave. I could do it with Bug if necessary. I think of Pico often. I'm not happy to hear that one of her boys is in jail. She would have been so irritated with him. I hope his crime was something small, if there is any such thing. You take care of yourself and come to us when you need someone to comfort you. [/QUOTE]
