The easiest way to avoid regrets is to ask yourself this question, "If not now, when?" It's a powerful way to put life and our decisions about how we spend our time into perspective"

Been thinking about Krista, her dad and family... Posted by Beverly on 3/5/2026, 3:36 pm I hope she checks in soon.

Thanks for thinking of us Posted by Krista on 3/5/2026, 5:54 pm, in reply to "Been thinking about Krista, her dad and family..." I am exhausted. So tired with so much going on with work and Dad. He had a dizzy spell yesterday and today but did walk 30 meters both days so that's good. His bowels are moving thankfully as that has been very stressful and painful for him. He can't walk to bathroom or by himself yet (2 physios working with him at same time). I'm thinking it will be at least another week if not longer. I'm hopeful though that he will be able to come home. The surgeon checked in yesterday and my brother brough up the bowels and cancer so they're all on the same page. I'm not a good "nurse" or caretaker. My patience is not good and I love my Dad dearly but I just am a good caretaker type of person. I'm run ragged when I am there. I shouldn't complain but I'm just tired. Eating is out of control and I am gaining. I have to get some rest. My gym membership is on hold until we can get this all ironed out. My brother, aunt and I are all there alternating hours.

Krista Posted by Cindyh on 3/7/2026, 10:57 am, in reply to "Thanks for thinking of us" You have to be exhausted. This is a very hard phase. I’m sorry for what you are going through. We all caretake in different ways. Take care of you or you are no good to anyone else. Hugs my friend

I know you will play your part, Posted by Paula on 3/6/2026, 10:42 am, in reply to "Thanks for thinking of us" however that might differ from hands on caretaking. I'm sure your presence to your dad and Paul means a lot! Don't underestimate what you bring to the table.

Our loving Lord in heaven is showering you with grace. Draw strength from Him! Have faith He's watching over you and your family!
