• Well....things aren't looking good in my husbands family right now.  His grandpa fell and broke his shoulder.   When they did the x-ray of his shoulder they found out he had pneumonia and a staff infection.    He's missed his dialysis because he's so sick.  And is incoherrant.

  
  

  Quite frankly I think he's going home this weekend.   If that happens...Rob will be flying alone to the services.    Its just too close to the baby being born for me to go.  And I have no intentions of being hauled off by a paramedic in a strange city to deliver.

  
  

  The timing...sucks.   But God is in control.  At first Rob was praying he would get better...and then he realized at 80 plus...maybe its just time to pray he's released.

  
  

  On top of that Gary.  My fil was told by his company that he should take a buy-off or be prepared to be laid-off in the weeks to come.  So he's looking at a third option that of going to the Philippines for 6 months.  Their begging for qualified people to go over there.  He's been there before (was there early this year.)  And it would probably give him the ability to ride-out the lay-offs.

  
  

  My mil is rightfully upset about this.  If it weren't for her parents she would just go with him.  But she is the only responsible member to take care of them.  And it rather looks like her father won't be making it past this weekend anyhow.

  
  

  Prayers would be appreciated.   And wisdom.
