First of all, thanks to SC for motivating me to address this. Because I've been kinda short tempered these past few months, and I owe some of you an apology, and all of you an explanation. My Dad, who's almost 85, developed a hernia earlier this year, and there are some complications because of where it's situated. Anyway, he's lived up in Eastchester in his own condominium since my Mom passed away. He's the most self-sufficient senior you'll ever meet, which makes this all the more difficult to deal with. Because in his current state, he was forced to move in with us until they can do the surgery, which takes place the first week of September (thank God). And it's really taking its toll on me because this is a guy was was still WALKING the golf course in Boca this past winter. He's short tempered and angry because of all this, and dealing with it is making me a grouch myself. Eh, who am I kidding? More than a grouch, I've been a real asshole. On these boards and in "real life." Point is, it's a lot on my plate, and I'm sorry for being such a jerk lately. I'm home more than I have been in years because I don't like to leave him alone, and because of that I'm on the silly Internet more than I've ever been in my entire life. That's half the problem. Anyway, it's no excuse for the way I've been behaving lately. Just a little bit of an explanation  .

PB, you are experiencing the burden that many of us middle age + people go through; caring for and assisting our aging parents. Thanks to modern-day medical care our parents are living longer and living healthy longer and then one day - POW - they need our help, love, care, support, comfort, compassion and shoulder. It takes many forms. Maybe its Alzheimer's, maybe a broken hip, pneumonia, phlebitis, financial, or just plain loneliness. My Dad had a stroke at 59 and died at 64. My Mom had to take care of him and they did great for those 5 years, but us kids had to be there as support. Then my Mom was alone. She did great for many years until Alzheimer's caught up to her. That was a tough two years.
In all of this we have to consider the dignity of the individual. They deserve our respect, love and care. It can be an emotional burden and a psychological strain. Hang tough my friend. Approach it with humor, humility and compassion. And I believe you are a man of faith, the Lord can ease the burden. Peace.

One of the best things about a message board like this one is you get to know people after a while and you get to take an interest in their lives. I always enjoy hearing your stories of what you and your dad do (mostly the golf ones). It's quite evident to all how close you are with your father, and it's heartwarming. We'll set up a prayer thread for him for his surgery, and then while he's recuperating we'll loot your apartment.  Hang in there, and next spring you'll be arguing over how many strokes he'll give ya on the front nine.

Thanks, everyone. For the first time in a long time, I have no words. But you all know that won't last  .

I'll make this short and sweet because I don't like posting personal things. But my Dad's surgery was this morning and it was as routine and successful as the doctors promised me it would be. He's in a private room and coming home with us tomorrow. He should be able to start splitting his time again (between our house and his condo) within a month. I just wanted to thank everyone here for their support, pms, emails and phone calls. And hopefully I'll be a little less cranky now that this is finally over with. So thanks again  . (The smiley is for Carmela, she knows why  ).

Thanks, guys. He's already acting silly. And if you knew him, you'd know it's a good sign. The first thing he asked the nurse was if he could keep the hernia. Like a kid with tonsils. But he did it with a straight face, so the poor kid actually tried to explain to him that they don't actually remove it, they pretty much just put it back where it belongs. So the old coot starts in with the mock outrage. You mean they just stick the f'n thing back inside of me? Where's the doctor!?!?Then he broke out laughing, so the nurse was off the hook. But you have to realize that he has a very warped sense of humor about getting old. He thinks it's funny to feign forgetfulness. I remember one time I drove him to the library to pick up one of his old cowboy dvds. He walks up to the librarian and asks her with a straight but confused face which aisle the canned goods were in. The poor girl. True story  .

I feel for you pizzaboy. I'm sorry to hear about your Gramps, Buddy. He sounds like he had a full life, though. If you need anything, you know where to find me. Meanwhile, take care of your Grandma  .
