My brother Mike called about the gaurdian ship.  We lost the case and my Dad's legal gaurdian is in the state of Fl.  We will not be able to care for him in the state of Ma. unless the guardian approves of the location with my sister Beth approving this. The likely hood of this happening while my Dad has any brain cells left is about 0.  Unfortunely Beth has not only lost her family but is now isolated just like my Dad is by family.  The other dreadful fear is my sister can do the same thing to me as I age.  The things that are out of our control should never happen if they can be helped.  I do not hold my parent's totally at fault because they did not understand the outcome of their actions.  Well time will tell what happens as life progresses.  I talked to my Dad last night and he sounds like he is giving up on life.  I hate to hear him like that after he had such a great summer.

This week I will try to have the MRI again.  I forget that I am clostfobric and do not take the meds so I have to reschudle.  This Friday I will remember to do this.   

Today ran around again and again and again. This seems like I live my life in my car. I realize now I love to drive my new car but I have driven over 230 miles since Saturday.  I know I have at least another 100 before the weeks out. I keep thinking the driving will slow down but it never seems to.

Drove Brooke to an AA meeting.  The meeting called the ambulance.  Of course the did not take her to the hospital. She was no drunk thank God she did not go to the hospital. I would have had to pick her up from there again. The hospital will not detox her.  Oh well par for my life.

Then after taking her home. I came home made a phone call. Went to Eastham picked up my son. Went to Hyannis for a brace fitting, then went to W.Barnstable to the horse farm. Then home for dinner in Harwich then took my son home to Orleans then back to my house.  This is just one day out of the seven. I wonder if I should get paid for bieng a taxi service.  HA!!!HA!!!!

Well the hip is tired and I think I do to much driving.  This could be one cause for my hip and body to be off each night. Well staying home even though my dream maybe to much for me to handle anytime soon.

Take care all. 

It's way to LONG!!!!!!!  Well to catch up.  The biggest news is---My sister hired a gaurdian to protect from Dad from my brother and myself.  She place him in an assisted living in Fl. without telling us until he was there.  Then she had the gaurdian she had hired made her court appointed.  My brother Mike who helped care for him this past summer of course apposed this.  He went to Fl,. for the hearing and I testified over the phone backing his ability to care for our Dad.  My sister as far as I'm concerned is dead to me for right now except talking about my Dad's care and that's it.  I have not talked to my sister in a month.  I know I need to talk to her soon in regards to my Dad's skin cancer since this has not been taken care of since he has been in Fl.  Hopefully the judge will rule in my brother's favor and he will come up here sooner then later.

The  other big news is--My son's group home this summer or early Sept- a septic pipe burst and back up into the basement causing a water pipe to burst.  Upon cleaning up the mess mole was found all over the items in the basement.  I called the board of health and numerous valolations were found.  The killer is a $250,000 grant was award this group home to be rebuilt 2 years ago and nothing has been done except for temporary fixes.

Have had a couple of colds nothing major. Have been exposed to hini but have not come down with it.

Today saw the orthopedic Dr. Was given a cortisone injection in my hip about 3 weeks ago. Helped somewhat.  An MRI will be set-up on my hip since the x-rays were not clear on what is going on except for some arthritis is going on.  The other thing they stated which I have no idea what it is-that AVI maybe present. I guess this is a blood disease that weakens the bones and effects the bones in the joints first.  Treatments are available if caught early.  They also recommended that I take meds regulary for my RA.  This is just tylenol for arthritis of napraxon.  I think I will take as needed still.  Other then these things nothing major has happened. Just daily living I guess!!!!
