Dad's surgery has failed, and they did not wish to spread the cancer further as they discovered more than they could safely remove. Last month he was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and now it's been a battle to keep him healthy enough for Chemo Therapy.
Every moment not spent at work was rushing him to a doctor's office for blood tests, and eventually back to the hospital where he succumbed to jaundice a second time. The last stint put into his gallbladder now allows him to drain without clogging, so that much has improved.
I'd had finished some drawings if not for Jury Duty which lasted the past two weeks. Thankfully the parties involved settled out of court, as it was a partial blame workman's comp. case. We were going to find all parties involved responsible- and the the two companies wanted to cover their asses. Very complicated and uninteresting.
Due to Jury Duty, my car in the shop and Hospital bills piling up it's left me with no free time for myself. I return to work tonight, and considering the swing of things I and the other contractors will be terminated by year's end or the beginning of next.
Time to start on a new resume.
I hope you are all well. Sorry for not being online. The summer is never kind for free time with me.

Keep hope in your heart for things still have a chance to get better, but I'd reccomend that you make peace with your Father as best you can. When my Father died last year from the stroke and heart attack, I was denied that opportunity and I'm all too often haunted by all the little things that I wanted to say to him but never did. Make peace with him and spend as much time as you are able to with him.
If you ever need or want to talk to me, you know how to reach me.
Awful timing for jury duty too, at least it's over.
I really hope things change for the better soon, perhaps the job situation isn't as dire as it looks.
