kyburgWell, we're not going to get out of this month unscathed again.
Mom just called. My uncle, the last of the males of his generation, has been hospitalized and diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. I'd give him a span of months - likely, weeks.
And no, I'm not surprised at all. He's not been well for at least a year that I know of - he's just been too much of a turdbucket to do anything about it.
Oh, I'm not bitter or anything. But it's all in character - and I had the scenario pegged some time ago.
You can't be mad at a dog for being a dog.
But this is going to get messy, quick. And protecting my mother from the fallout is going to take some serious tap dancing. Good thing I never put away my shoes.
*rolls eyes* GHAD FSCKING AUGUST.
