A Drive Through the Countryside...Logan's...and Everything Changes

 

John and I took a midweek break together.

Through the backroads of Bridgeton and Parke County.  

Out to visit friends and see old places and his parents gravesites.

We stopped in Terre Haute for lunch at Logan's.

Oh...and met this guy....the keeper of the bridge.

Across from the old mill.


It has been a lot...this last couple of weeks.

The pneumonia on his lungs now resolved...but after a requested CT Scan...much more troubling news.

A large mass (as yet unidentified) found...waiting on the consult...and waiting...and waiting.

(...he used to be a heavy smoker...)

Together we've decided to enjoy a couple more normal weeks...in case of subsequent treatment (...which we have both been through with our late spouses...).

On top of this news, Diane, who is now in renal failure...refuses dialysis...and is not a candidate for a kidney transplant due to multiple health issues.

And our friend, Charlcie, who is end stage COPD and will soon be moving to her daughter's house and hospice care.

...breathe...

We're going to get through all this...arranging things...making plans...and taking it one day at a time.

It is all any of us have got.
