Will do. Thanks.

They don't have internet access at their condo, so unless I do something drastic, my posting will be severely limited.

Lots of vibes and prayers have been sent and will keep coming. I know your being there will help a lot.

If you go to a Starbucks or what ever, you can use their wireless. We do this when we're in the Va. mountains. No starbucks but Hardee's has it.

Lots of McDonalds have free wireless as well.

Vibes to you and your folks, Ozzie - safe travels too!

Again, thanks to all; vibes muchly appreciated!

As for internet, there is one unsecured wireless that I can use intermittently. The signal strength is low, and sometimes I can connect and sometimes I can't, don't know why, but it's been like that for 3 years. And I'm not staying at the condo - no room. I'm staying at a friend of the family's house nearby, and she doesn't have a computer either :( My netbook doesn't even have a modem, so I can't use dial up.

That said, the nearby public library has free wifi, as do the some of the local fast food places. But they don't lend themselves to surfing, or posting, at night.

Ozzie, have a safe trip, and enjoy your visit with your Dad and Mom.

They moved my dad from the hospital to a rehab center on Tuesday afternoon. He has a good appetite but other than that I don't know much about his physical condition. They were going to try to get him up out of bed today. I'll find out later tonight how that went when I speak with my mom.

I'm driving to Ft. Lauderdale tomorrow and will see him Friday morning. Also, at the suggestion of a friend down there, I have called the local Hospice service and set up an appointment with them (and with my mom - she doesn't know this yet) for Friday afternoon. I think they will be of great help for them when he has to leave the rehab after two weeks (that's what Medicare will pay for). Medicare pays for all the Hospice service, even if it is (almost) 24 hours/day assistance. They sound wonderful. I'll let you know.

Hospice is amazing. Simply amazing. @};- @};- @};-

Good Luck, Hon. We'll be thinking of you up here in the north. Drive safely. Let's hope you find him chipper and ready to do his therapy! I know that seeing you will give him a boost. Give him a hug straight from old Ima. :ymhug:
Love, Ima
