Not feeling well

Dad's sinus infection has moved into his lungs and is now pneumonia. He is still not feeling well but has started the second round of Vidaza. They are hoping it will knock some of the leukemia cells down to a more manageable level. Dad has now requested no school age or younger children be brought into his home, there is just too much of a risk right now. He is not trying to be mean or cruel, he is just trying so hard to fight all of this and his immunity is zero. Having kids make cards, pictures or a video. If you can put them in an email you can send them to him at scbankhead@hotmail.com. Some have said that Dad and even Mom right now can get a little testy, well let us try to understand, they both know very soon they will have to say goodbye to each other after almost 60 years of marriage, I think we can all be very sympathetic to that, and I know myself would not be half as nice and kind as they are right now. Please continue to keep Mom and Dad and the family in your prayers.
