HughFreakingDillon said:my dad....turned 74 on monday. had a heart attack late last night. just before our big blizzard started. he's at the hospital recovering; one blocked artery, stent is in, they say there is some risk of a clot, so he's there for a few days for monitoring. problem is, he had covid last week. he has recovered, but he's still testing positive so we can't go visit him. he's all alone. so my sister is collecting stuff for a care package (hopefully she can get where she needs to go in this storm), my girls are making get well cards that are sure to make him cry. I'm sending him some music magazines to keep busy (that's our "in common"-we go to shows together a lot, and have even jammed on occasion).
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy. ~ Desiderata0 -

Sorry to hear that. I hope your dad has a speedy recovery. Wishing you and your family the best.

Going to unload a little bit...
Thinking of my Dad, who passed away 18 (how is that right?) years ago this month.
My wife and I are in the midst of both IVF and adoption...prayers/vibes/etc are MORE than welcome.
Mom is dealing with after effects of her lung surgery..so happy that we're close so we can help.
Not all doom & gloom around here---just feels like a lot of things going on at once. I am writing more & playing guitar more,,,and that's definitely helped. Just feeling a tad overwhelmed these days, I think. Hope this finds you all well.I LOVE MUSIC.

yeah, because of my dad's heart attack, and his and my mom's covid, our trip to seattle to see Jerry Cantrell is likely going to be cancelled. I've never sold tickets on stub hub before. Hope I can recoup that part of the cost.
