Gloomy Wednesday here.
Getting ready to visit my father. He's still in ICU-his lungs had to be drained from pneumonia but the stomach operation went well. They think he may have developed a lung disease due to his smoking past. He quit 4 yrs ago after 40 yrs.
So yesterday when I visited they had a handful with him-he was hallucinating from meds...the walls were melting, the ceiling had a huge hole in it, and the mafia was poisoning him that he attempted to leave. When things calmed down & my dad was smiling & looking around (hallucinating of course) I made light the whole situation & said "gee I wish I had what he's on". My mother & hubby didn't think it was too funny (with my history to boot). I got scolded like a little kid~ "you think it's funny seeing your father all confused". On the ride home my hubby was like "your dad used to drink (he was a functioning alcoholic-quit 10 yrs ago) and your mom doesn't like seeing him like that". Ok, ok.
Lesson-my humor doesn't always lighten up situations! Lesson learned.
Anyway-that became a novel. Just wanted to say hello & wish everyone a great day.
