trying to be brave

Well, I want that back.
My To-Do list these days looks more like this...
And the "go back to bed" part is done on a hospital couch.
Dad is having a brain biopsy done on Friday b/c they think he might have lymphoma.
I have surprised myself with staying strong in front of him, but inside I am terrified.  And I have definitely let it out several times to some of my poor dear friends.

And as I type this, my dad is crying.  Because he can't sleep.  And if he isn't sleeping, he is thinking about the biopsy on Friday and what his future holds.  He has had to lie around thinking about this since Thursday morning of last week.  And there is nothing I can do.  I feel so helpless.

So?
