Is an absolute rock in our family. He's the one we all turn to for advice and guidance. He's 76 years young and has always been active. Until now. He's been having some dizziness and went into the hospital yesterday to have a stint put into his heart. He has some blockage. But when they went in there, the doctors determined that the blockage was too much so they are now doing more tests to see what course to take.

I talked to him today (giving him a Chan update) and asked how he felt. He said he's never felt better physically because he now knows what is causing the dizziness. But he feels bad emotionally because he now knows what is causing the dizziness.

Honestly, if something happens to my father-in-law, we will be wrecks. I know Rich can't handle it. I can't even begin to think about life without my father-in-law.

We did have a good laugh, though. I said with my broken neck and his bad heart, we'd have a good time at Disney World watching everyone else having fun. He said he's looking forward to that.

Aww, I hope they can find a treatment to help him get better. He sounds like someone who doesn't give up too easily.

I'm so sorry, I hope they can fix it.
