Prayers for your dad and your family. This is a tough time for you all and you have my heart.

One of my BILs, was way too young when diagnosed with cancer and he was moved to Mass. General’s Paliative Care Unit and we discovered what a wonderful concept it is. They were exceedingly accommodating and kind. You made the perfect choice.

(((HUGS!!)))
XOXOXOXOXOX

Oh,Ma...
*HUG*
My heart goes out to you.
Everything you are now going through,
I went through with my own Poppa.

I really, honestly DO know how you feel.
I read something really beautiful today, it goes like this:

“Life is too short to wake up with regrets.
So love the people who treat you right.
Love the ones who don’t,
just because you can.

Believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands!
If it changes your life, let it!

Kiss slowly.
Forgive quickly.
God never said life would be easy..
He just promised it would be worth it”

Love and hugs,
Ms.B

So sorry to hear of your father’s decline. But rest assured you have made the right decision. My mother has already made that decision for herself, and we WILL respect her wishes.

Dad passed away rather unexpectedly, but was already deep into Alzheimer’s, so no such decision was required. We were thankful that he was in “the home” less than 3 weeks.

Been in that building. Three times I think. Once as an engineering student, once as an AFROTC cadet, and once as a 1st Lt. Got a really good look at the underground command post the two times I was in uniform. The last time as a “guest” of my AFROTC buddy, who regularly gave intelligence briefings there.

I'm sure it's all different now, but the building looks the same from the outside. Different missile out front though.

I was stationed at Offutt AFB in the 1980s as an Airborne Command Post Communications Equipment Repairman.

Thanks for bringing back some memories! I would say, “Good times,” but I’d be lying. The cold winters really sucked. And, tornado season was just plain wicked.

I was working in an EC-135 on the flight-line one day when it started rocking and rolling. Afterwards, I climbed down the hatch and looked around. Our plane was about 50 feet from where it had been and all the other planes on the flight-line were all cattywompus, too. Turns out, a small tornado had walked right down the center of the flight-line! [nervous LOL] Funny thing was, not a single plane was damaged. Go figure!

Anyway, thank goodness I eventually got sent to Hickam AFB, Hawaii! Now, those were REALLY some good times!

Cheers!
