It has been about 2 months since I have been active here. My dad was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer and only given about 6 months to live. My dad choose to go the home hospice route to die with dignity(I can't blame him). My girlfriend(bless her heart)and I moved into the basement so we could help my mom who is also in bad health. It was the toughest thing I have ever had to watch. My dad went from a strong man to a helpless child in 2 months. He passed away on the 29th and is in a much better place. Yesterday I picked up my Baki Silver Pot for the first time in 2 months and filled it with SPC Mississippi River. I puffed away and remembered all the wonderful memories. I look forward to getting on with life and becoming active in the brotherhood again. Love you dad and miss you and with each and every bowl I smoke I will cherish our times together. ::
