12/26 update
Wow! Where has this year gone? It seems like yesterday I received the news that my father had been diagnosed with dementia. Now we are at the end of the year, and I can tell you, I’m really looking forward 2010.
Just a recap of the year 2009:
1/1/09 – receive word of Dad’s dementia
1/23/09 – receive word that Dad had a massive heart attack and travel to Tennessee that weekend
1/27/09 – Ryan calls from school complaining of a headache and is out from school for the rest of the week
2/2/09 – Ryan is admitted to Baptist Medical Center for a CT scan of his stomach
2/3/09 – we find out Ryan has cancer and begin the three month process of getting rid of it
6/15/09 – Ryan was listed as in remission from cancer
8/10/09 – Ryan started the 4th grade
12/16/09 – Dorris Sullivan (Buddy) passes away after a long battle with his heart
12/21/09 – went to see my Dad and signed for medical power of attorney as the nurses say he is not mentally competent to make decisions
Well – that just about sums up the year. And I didn’t even list everything that happened. After we found out Ryan had cancer, I kept asking if I could wake up tomorrow and it be 2010. And in a few mores days, that will happen. I just pray that 2010 will be a year to remember and for better reasons.
I hope that everyone had a very Merry CHRISTmas and that everyone has a joyous New Year! God bless each and every one of you!
