Well Boys & Girls, I have to sadly say that I won't be able to attend this meet due to family sickness...........I was notified Thurs. that my Dad has "terminal cancer" in his right lung......it currently has 4 liters of cancerous fluid in it & the remainin part of it is collapsed. He goes in Mon. to see the surgeon that will insert a tube through his side into the lung to drain said fluid, it can only drain 1 1/2 liters per day, so he will be hospitalized for 3 days, while they drain the lung, they are gonna "glue" his lung open to keep it from collapsin (just what we've been told), he's in severe pain & they have given him pain meds. I did notice when we were down in March, that he would tell me somethin 2 or 3 times (not rememberin he had told me already), so I'm figurin its already makin it way to his brain. He told my lil' Brother that he was in pain while we were there, but hid it (VERY WELL I must say) from us. So we're plannin on goin down the week of the meet (my Wife has to request her vacation(s) at the first of the year (Wal-Mart), and they must be approved, and when they are, you are locked into it)....she was plannin on goin to PA to visit her Dad, but since this has come about, we'll be headin to FLA.
I've been prayin that "GOD's will be done & that Dad doesn't suffer", we aren't supposed to pray for death, so this is the best I can ask for, that he doesn't suffer! I pray that I get to see him before its time for him to go "HOME for eternity", but that is in GOD's hands!
SORRY, I've rambled enough............hope to make the next one!

dad hauls gas when the price drops at the terminals where he picks up at ,the gas stations dont buy but when it goes up they buy so they can charge more for what they already had like if gas is 3.00 and they buy if it drops to2.85 at the terminals they will not buy but when it goes to 3.15 they will and what they bought at 3.00 they can sell for 3.15
