Over Christmas my poor Dad felt like total poo. We all thought he just had a really bad sinus infection, boy were we wrong about that. Apparently Dad has Bells Palsy (for those of you who have no idea what it is – I sure didn’t- here’s a website: http://www.bellspalsy.ws).
It is miserable and I feel so bad he has had to deal with it. Yesterday he found out that the cough he developed after Christmas is really Whooping Cough. I mean who actually gets Whooping Cough anyway? I thought that was what Kramer had on Seinfield and went to the vet because it sounded like a dog he heard. What are the chances of getting Whooping Cough as well as Bell’s Palsy all at the same time? Dad should play the lottery this week for sure.
He was such a trooper. Even though he felt like poo and still made sure we had video of Christmas.
Fortunately, it is possible to recover from both of these things, even though they make you feel pretty awful while they’re hanging around. Sandra and Jim have both been in our prayers . . . we heard Sandra had a “graceful moment” and hurt her knee when they visited you guys. I think we’re just going to have to put them both in full body armor to keep them safe!
Hey, we just saw on CNN where the Veteran’s Memorial Coloseum was demolished in New Haven. did you guys get to see it?
