This week dad is running fever. His billirubin is up. However, being the holidays, his health is on hold for the doctors. They won't be back until a week from today. He is eating less, and even said "No Thanksgiving" because he feels so bad. He tries to keep a good front going, but when you cancel Thanksgiving, somethings up.

He lost a dear friend on Saturday. Jim Admire had worked for General Engineering for 45 years or so. He was a sweet dear man. They called dad to say he had an hour or two left. Dad got there in 15 minutes and was too late.

We wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving, enjoy your loved ones. Take time to be with them and give them an extra tight hug this week.
