Have not set a date

Sammie, I just saw this question so please forgive me for not replying sooner. In the future, you might consider just continuing the conversation in its original thread, rather than making a new 'question' every time you have something else to add.

As I told you earlier, I am glad to hear that you have started attending A.A. meetings. I am sure that was a hard thing for you to do. I congratulate you for taking that important first step and I wish you success in your efforts.

Also, thanks for asking about my dad. While he is not well, he looked better than I expected and I was glad that we all had a chance to see him and spend a little time with him.

For now, his oral chemo seems to be working fairly well. Although it doesn't kill off the existing cancer, he does not seem to be rapidly getting worse, which is about all that can be hoped for at this particular point in his disease.

When that point comes, he'll go into hospice; but at least I am certain it won't come before Christmas, as I had feared.

Take care.
