New Illness

Sorry to all my readers, I've been out of town. Unfortunately, just like last time I was out of town, my Dad had another illness;thankfully one that was not too serious. He has some sort of gastro virus and sounds uncomfortable, but not like last time. I feel fear, though, every time I see the phone number of his caregiver pop up on my phone. Especially while I'm on vacation!
And I feel more and more fear each time Dad is ill, which has happened with disturbing regularity lately. The man who never had a cold seems always to be ill now. It makes me sad.
