I just posted a "Been There; Done That; Ate the T-Shirt" comment in your LJ. My Dad is notorious for driving himself to the hospital while his heart is doing the hokey-pokey.

My f-i-l is EXACTLY the same way. He's not just a heart attack patient, he's a carrier.

I got your e-mail, Cindy -- thanks! I may call you if I get there and can't see him right away.

I should be around for a good long chunk of time. If you're good, I'll let Christopher tell you knock-knock jokes (or, maybe if you're bad, I haven't quite decided that part, yet).

he's my Dad! he's not supposed to be sick!

Exactly.

"Ate the T-Shirt." Heh. I know -- it was very strange, because I had seen your post yesterday and offered vibes, and when my mom called, I was thinking, Wait a minute. This sounds familiar... And I'll be sending many vibes during the procedure for your dad, Tep.

Dads of the world! Behave!

I hope everything works out extra-healthy-well with your dad.

Thanks. I'm thinking, naturally, that today calls for cake.

I had the "but he's my dad" experience about 10 years ago, only since I never actually saw my dad while he was sick, I'm sure I'll be in for it again someday.

This is where I find the interbunny X-TRA frustrating, because that was my first instinct when I read your post--to bring you cake, which we'd totally share with Teppy. But in order for that to happen, between Christopher's school schedule, and Ben & Julia's, you'd both have to live in my town, and put your dads in the same hospital. Oh, and the cabana boys would double as babysitters.

Well, that's an interesting idea.

I don't want cake. I just want a nap, and someone comforting to read me a bedtime story and snuggle me until I fall asleep.

There is, however, a shortage of such things in my world. Which sucks.

Aimee -- I am so sorry for your loss.

Vibes to everyone else who needs them -- what a bad start to the week.

And I forgot to send my recipe too. Well, it's not that great anyway.

Heart~ma for Tep and AmyLiz's dads. You should totally have cake.

Punctuation to everybody that needs it.

The kids and I made dirt cake this weekend. It was quite good.

Would you kick AmyLiz and me out of bed for eating crackers cake?
