It’s sad and frustrating, but understandable at the same time. The only saving grace is he won’t have to be without Mom so long. They were married for 58 1/2 years, and were each other’s best friend. Proof of true love if there ever was.

Definitely a tough 10 months.

He’s in a home, now, and on hospice. He flips between “This place is Heaven,” and, “It’s Hell on Earth,” sometimes multiple times a day. His entire reality hinges on his mood at the moment. It’s similar to dealing with a toddler who is convinced he’s the smartest person in the room.

Two days after Mom passed, Dad went to the ER with chest pains and shortness of breath… an X-ray of his chest showed stage 3A lung cancer, later confirmed by biopsy and further tests as highly aggressive, Stage 4 Terminal Cancer. We’ve since learned he has at least 3 big tumors in his brain.

Every time we scheduled a trip to go get it, something came up to postpone it… multiple illnesses, including a bout of Covid for us, reroofing Dad’s house, and buying a new car at the end of July… Mom went into the hospital the day we signed the paperwork, and died 4 days later.

It’s been an incredibly difficult 10 months. I bought my Hansen Pro miniSpinner in April and everything went haywire. Since Dad was helping pay for it, he insisted it be shipped to his house in Oregon. He wasn’t about to pay Idaho sales tax if he could avoid it.

Supported Spindle of highly polished, warm orange and brown woods, with black accents, against a cream background.

Side view of a supported spindle with a black shaft, and a whorl shaped like a spinning top, made of highly polished orange and brown wood with black ring accents, and a very fine titanium tip.

Missed out on a Spanish Peacock stealth drop, but managed to pick up this beauty from @thespindleshop.bsky.social

It does make you look a bit like a Muppet. 🤣 How do you get all those shavings off?
