My father died 12 years ago today.

My Mom went in for a CAT scan on her abdomen this afternoon. She cried to me on the phone because she hated being in the hospital on the anniversary of my father's death. She was scared and alone.

I miss my father every day, and curse fate or a higher power or whatever for inflicting the same terminal illness on

A lot of heartbreak in your journal lately. Sucky to hear. I hope it gets better (and that the CAT scan has good news).
