Hey Mojo, I'm going to my mom"s house in KC for Thanksgiving. My younger son is going with me but my older son is staying here. We'll leave bright and early Wed - right after my followup with the new doctor. So, hopefully, I'll have a new game plan then.
Even with the remaining issue, I am thankful for both THRs and the new life. I have. I'm thankful for 2 great sons .They are great guys and are preparing themselves to adult. The first will go solo after graduation for his masters in May and the second is preparing leave home for college. I'll miss them but will take heart in having done my job as a parent to get them to that point.
Enjoy this last Thanksgiving at your dad's. We used to have TG at my grandmother's house (think 50 people in e bedroom apartment - and 50 only because half of the family didn't come because they were feuding with the other half). That ended about 6 years ago when she went into the nursing home. It's just not the same now but it will always be special as long as family is there.
