Elsewhere

Things may be quiet here for a while as Miche & I have more pressing things to worry about right now. I've not wrote about this before because, well, it just didn't seem fitting. The closest I got to it was this post.

Miche's Dad will endure seven hours of surgery tomorrow to remove a rather large tumor from a salivary gland near his jaw. He goes in at 8:30 AM.

Now, he's a strong man, despite his age; he walks the dog every day and plays golf five days a week. There's every reason to assume that things will be fine. Nevertheless, we will not settle until it's over and done with.

My thoughts, as you'll appreciate, are not on writing right now.

Seven hours! A scary time for you all. I hope it goes well. My thoughts are with you.

I had to read your "waiting game" post a few times to make sense of what's going on.
Take care, all of you. Take care of yourselves and of each other.

If it helps to write, blog it to "draft". You don't ever have to hit the publish button.

Thanks all - your concern is much appreciated.

He's out of surgery now and stable, though much more has had to be removed than expected. Including a facial nerve, which has obvious ramifications.

Miche is there now with him.

Went to visit him tonight. Battered and bruised, though in good spirits.

Christ knows how mind, he had to go back under the knife at two in the morning because of a deep bleed.

He still had the energy to take the piss - what a guy.

A settled 24 hours - I guess he's over the worst now. Just a question of enough time to let the bruises heal.

Looks like he may be out of hospital by monday. He's beginning to heal well...
