Went to see my dad

He was doing ok... lost a bunch of weight he did not need to lose. He was very grateful to see the three kids. He went over his estate and burial plans. His new wife (who I adore) was always there to help, listen and take notes. I recorded everything. It is likely I will be able to pay off some medical debt... and fix my neglected house. It is going to screw with my Medicaid and all that... we will figure it out. We have about 3 months of my son's formula stock piled... I think we're going to be grateful we had it.

I left on Monday. Flew home and felt terrible doing so. My wife really needed me back though. She is still not well... probably won't ever be the "well" from a decade ago.

Last night my dad fell and his new wife needed help to get him back in bed but no one answered their phone a 2am. I don't know what happened but my sisters are now planning on staying with him in 12 hour shifts.

He asked my sister if she had brought a dog he used to have with my mom, who died like 15 years ago. So he's not lucid today.

I am torn. I don't feel guilty though.

My sisters are not nearly as close to him as I am... yet they are there.
