Just talked to my other sister, and news is not any better about my Dad. But nothing conclusive at this point.

For those that have not read these threads, I have two on my adventures with my Dad this summer.

The first is our fishing trip into Northern BC.

And the second is an incredible story about Dad's perseverence at the BC Senior Games this summer.

I am going to miss him... I just hope that missing doesn't start right away.

Thanks everyone.
I don't know if you live in the same city as your father or not, but if you do. GO SEE HIM AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!! I lost my mom less then 5 months ago and although I spent 16 hour days with her for the last 7 weeks of her life, IT WAS STILL NOT ENOUGH. I regret not spending even more time with her. I miss her more everyday. I thought time would heal, but it in fact gets worse. Anyway, if you don't live in the same city as him try to visit him as much as possible. My employer was kind enough to give me 9 weeks off (unpaid, but totally worth it).

Also, out of curiousity, how old are you and how old is your dad? I am 26 and can't fathom living the rest of my life without my mom.


Anyway, back on topic. I am not a winter kind of guy, but I can live with this if it comes in spurts only.
