Just read this Sick, and, wow it certainly puts things in perspective. Prayers and thoughts to you and your family.
I'm so sorry Sick. I'll be praying for you mother and you. Cancer sucks. I've lost a lot of my family to this junk.
Sorry for the pain you and your family are enduring bro. My thoughts are with you all. A guy I knew growing up inexplicably died from a virus that apparently shut down his organs. Guy was a 42 yr old police sergeant. Athlete his whole life, good shape, husband and father of 2 little kids. He got sick 2 weeks ago...now he is gone. Life is so cruel sometimes.
Geez Seth thats terrible man. We skyped with my aunt, shes so yellow. Its ****ing terrible. 1 1/2 months ago she was fine....she had some pain went to the ER.....full blown liver cancer. WTF man. Its unreal. Her kids are mutes and havent spoken to anyone. They along with her husband need therapy, but theyre all stubborn and keeping it all pent up, which isnt good. My mom is having a real difficult time. and then shes feeling guilty by "having a difficult time" because it could be worse, obviously. On top of it all my mom missed my baby sisters prom Saturday, and her boss told her quote "this is going to be an expensive trip for you".....what an *******.
Hold on Chris. Your mom gonna' need some one strong to hold on too. My son came home, when my mom died, from Japan (in the Navy) I was so grateful to see him. He understood what I was going throuth better than anyone else. God bless.
Thanks deb. I'll be strong for my mom. I only have one living grand parent at 27. And I am the oldest of 4. So I have had to be the rock for my younger brothers and sister. My mom and I grew up together (she had me at 17) so I will need to be here for her for sure Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Well it is in my situation. Since my parents had me young. My grandparents were young as well. Lost them all in late 50s, early 60s. One from smoking. One from drug abuse. One from alcohol. Pretty sad stuff. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
To further reiterate. My paternal grandmother passed when I was 15 (my baby sister was 5) my paternal grandfather I was 18 and my maternal grandfather passed when I was 24. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have to put down one of my dogs tomorrow. She has an inoperable brain tumor and it has manifested itself as psychotic behavior. She has tried to kill one of my other dogs that she was surrogate mother to for the last 6 years since that dog was 6 weeks old. I'm not ok.
It's rough, I've been down to one grandparent (the one who raised me) since I was 19. Didn't know the other grandfather but the one I did was the closest thing I ever had to a father. When I was 10 I lost my maternal grandmother and it destroyed my mother (who was already a bag of issues). Hopefully your mother has the tools to deal with her loss, either way support from her oldest son is always a good thing. Good Luck.
Damn, brother. Sorry to hear. You and your wife are in my thoughts. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

sorry for your losses Sick, Fin D and Seth. I lost my grandparents at age 8 ( rheumatoid arthritis) , 12 ( cancer) , 27( had dementia, broke his hip, nasty stuff). I've got one more. He's trucking along though. I lost my virginity yesterday. He was very romantic. Soft Hands. Said his name was Tom Brady.
Damn, so much pain and suffering in here at the moment. Hang in there, fellas. And always appreciate the time you had together. Memories of happy times will live on forever.
Gunna try to lighten this up a bit: Day 3 of DDP Yoga in the books, woke up at 6 today to do it. Doubled up yesterday evening. Day 1 was monday. man I am sweating like a sinner in church. Good work out, feel more flexible already (you're welcome lucky), and all in all, its making me want to eat better and cleaner as not to waste the effort put forth. Draft tonight, so I will have some wings and beer, but back to it this weekend! It's friday eve everyone!!! Who is going to be a Miami Dolphin tomorrow morning? I say Zack Martin. Somehow I see us moving up (don't agree with it, but I see it)
Yeah, I even woke up to do work out this morning so I can get home, get out of this damn suit and get to the bar with everyone! Gunna play some pool, darts, arcade games etc. Love this time of year!
I need other peoples thoughts on this one. Yesterday my wife and I went to a local restaurant that we go to often, after a few beers with dinner I went into the mens room to relieve the bladder so I can fill it up again.... now heres where it got awkward. Standing at the urinals were me and about 4 other guys doing their business when one of the stalls opens up and out walks a girl, around 5 years old I`d say, followed by her father. They walk over to the sink and he starts washing his hands while his daughter is standing right there with all us guys in full view at the urinals. After he washed his hands he told the little girl to wash her hands also- she did- and they walked out. None of the guys still in the mens room said a word but I could tell I wasnt the only one who felt like it was an awkward moment. I started to think to myself that if he was at the restaurant with only his daughter and no one else, then he probably had no choice but to do what he did. HOWEVER, that was not the case at all. I later noticed that he was at a table not too far from my wife and I , and sitting at his table were 5 other people INCLUDING 2 women. Now why, WHY didnt one of those women bring the girl into the ladies room instead of him taking her into the mens room ???? Regardless if one of those women were her mother or not they could have taken her into the appropriate rest room. Am I right ?? I need feed back on this since I never had a daughter but to me this was just plain wrong. Either that or I`m over reacting which I doubt.
Without knowing if the mother was one of the 2 women, I am just going to assume she was not (although it doesn't influence my opinion much either way), I don't find it to be a big deal. To me you're overreacting. Even if there were women, maybe the father is uncomfortable allowing others to do the job he feels he's responsible for, or maybe the daughter doesn't feel comfortable with the other women. I mean, maybe you're saying the girl was like staring at penises, but just because you're looking at urinals doesn't mean you see anything. I don't go to the bathroom and stare at other guys equipment even if they're at a urinal next to mine, I just do my business and go.
I get all that, and I`m not saying she was staring at penises because nothing was in full view , but it was an uncomfortable moment.
2 things: 1. I always try to bring my son to the bathroom when we're out, because it seems like the right thing to do "man/man" and not my wife, etc. However, it happens. 2. She (the daughter) is completely and utterly innocent, and was not eyeing dongs or anything. She was probably as uncomfortable as you guys. The dad as well. Maybe the wife is a dumb ***** that has his balls in her purse (like fin d), or maybe the wife was catching up with friends or family and the father took it upon himself to bring her. All in all, too many hypothetical in this case. Its not a fully nude bathroom with hookers snorting heroin off the paper towel dispenser. Restaurant bathroom, not a big deal IMO
could be a lot of things. Either way I'd say you're overreacting. Good for that dad for not being a prick and taking care of his daughter. Five is really young, I doubt the little girl really knew what was going on.
I absolutely agree she did nothing wrong. I just asked the same question to two of my co-workers who have young daughters if they would do what that father did. One said not in a million years would he bring his 5 year old daughter in a mens room unless it was 100% absolutely necessary , like if the ladies room was out-of-order or something. The other said he would ask one of the women at the table first if they would mind taking her into the ladies room.( since it was obvious they were all aquaintances). If all else fails then he said he would do it himself.
