dreamlingI'm really out of it today. I struggled with some art last night. (copics making inks smear. :P)
Also, last night my father was taken to the hospital in an ambulance, for a great deal of pain, most likely due to the cancer in his spine. He got a morphine drip last weekend, and had the dosage upped yesterday, but it still wasn't enough to moderate the pain, and they were having trouble getting him into the car because it hurt so much to move they had to call the ambulance. My mother and brother spent most of the night waiting to get him admitted in the emergency room, and then some sort of scan to see if there's a tumor or something pressing on his sciatica or something similar.
Anyway, this weekend is Father's Day. Our gift to dad is an order from here:

We ordered the Super Cincinatti Pack
My whole family was born in Ohio, and we really wanted to give Dad a taste of 'home'. We've lived here in wisconsin since I was in 2nd grade, but every time we visit Ohio, we always make sure to take some time to visit a Skyline or Cincinatti Chili. mmm coneys.
Anyway. That's what's going on here.
I'm having a hard time focusing today. This stress, and normal stupid girly hormonal stress. I just want to go back to bed. Last night I said, to my husband, "I'm escaping as hard as I can, and it's just not working".
I'll likely swing by the hospital tonight.
Edit: The CT scan didn't show any visible reason for his pain, so they're going to send him to a Hospice to try to get his pain under control, and then send him home in a couple days. So, that's where I'll likely be tonight.
Edit2:4:30, and they're just now transfering him out to fitchburg. Sounds like my Aunt and Uncle are back in town, perhaps with my other uncle or my cousin joe? It's nice to have family near.
