WHEN IT RAIN, IT POURS

After all the health issues these past several months, Dad jokingly stated he was waiting for the doctors to find something else; however, I think he really was serious. Although the cancer might not be as much of an issue as originally thought, Dad now has been diagnosed with gout. The diet was already quite restrictive, but now--WHAT JOY! Sense a disheartened spirit in Dad especially when it comes to the one thing that he looked forward to in the day--FOOD.

Gout can be a one-time occurrence, so hopefully with eating a more restricted diet and taking medication, Dad can return to eating beans; soups; rich and creamy desserts; chocolate candies; more than a daily two-ounce serving of certain meat, poultry, and fish......

Please continue to keep Mom and Dad in your prayers.

Sorry to hear this about Paul. I had a brief bout w/ gout and it was very painful.

Hi Debbie, Just had to comment on Jonathan. I hope this "last chance" works out for him but I wasted a lot more years than he has before I got a little maturity to start on the right path. Maybe the right woman will come along to help(as happened with me). Love and miss you guys!
