A not so merry Christmas for me.

I got a call yesterday from my brother in law. He wanted to talk to me about getting his will done and making me the executor. He said his lung problems were getting worse and he may have cancer. He lives in Alabama. He has an rv that an old friend of his lets him live on their property.
His friend called me earlier today and said he had to take him to the ER and he was in the hospital with tubes down his throat. He called me again later and said they had moved him to a pulmonary unit in Huntsville which is 100 miles from his town. The hospital is supposed to call me today.
I may be spending a lot of time traveling from here to Alabama in 2025. I’m getting  a real feeling of deja vu.

I just talked to the hospital. He’s in the ICU, sedated and on a ventilator. They’re going to take xrays tomorrow. Not looking good so far. I’d appreciate your prayers.
