Today I'm 49

Oh my gosh how did this happen, how did I turn 49 today? Where has all the time gone? Even though it's a cliche, it's true. Time does fly.

Since the last time I posted so much has happened, besides my birthday. I've traveled to New Jersey, San Francisco, Atlanta, cruised to the Bahamas and to no where.

We moved my Papi to my brothers. He's been in the hospital this past week and just yesterday we had to place him in a rehab nursing home. Poor Papi. He's trying so hard. His legs became so weak that he couldn't walk. The best the doctors can say is that he suffered a TIA. Nothing more tangible than that. He went through hell as they tried to get clear MRIs of his spine. They filled him with Atavan which messed him up. It's still working it's way out of his system. But he's in Greenbriar now and getting stronger.

A pox on AMR ambulance company. Dad was discharged from South Miami Hospital at 2pm Wed afternoon. We waited and waited and the ambulance that was supposed to transfer him to Greenbriar never showed up. Finally at 8:15pm my brother made arrangements for a Rescue vehicle to take him. The ambulance company stopped answering the phones. What if we'd had no other recourse? It was irresponsible and inhuman.

So, I spent my birthday and Greenbriar and took my car in for service. Blah.

Oh well, it'll be better next year. Sorry it's been so long since I posted. I'll try to do better.
