MORE TO LIFE..........
Well we ended up going to Shepparton yesterday for the day. I had still been very undecided on whether to go or not, but decided to in the end. We headed off about 9am, had a lovely spit roast for lunch at dads when we got there which was really yummy. Thanks to everyone for the advice on my pop. I honestly thought I had prepared myself-but I hadn't. I ended going in to see him (without Corey or the kids.) He is bed riden and in a bed room at dads house as he does not want to go to hospital and at this stage (somehow) Dad and Ai are coping looking after him. I won't go into detail, but I know wish I hadnt gone as I dont honestly think he knew whether I was there or not. I also now understand dad when he says he would be surprised if he lasts the week out. I have told my sisters not to go to visit next weekend unless they are totally prepared. I thought I was, but I told them I think they really should just try and remember the happier memories as I am now trying to do. Hopefully the door upstairs will open very soon and he can be with Nanna Betty again.
It sure has made me appreciate my life and not take anything for granted, as who knows what will happen tomorrow - or today for that matter. You just never know when your time is up. $ months ago he was as fit as a fiddle. I just want to enjoy my life and live every day as if it were my last..... no regrets.
I Havent been to the gym as we were away, although did heaps of gardening today and mowed the lawns. I am going in the morning and getting my hair done at lunchtime - yey!!!
Anyway I am going to try and visit everyone tonight and catch up on the past week or so. Hope you are all well, kys

All my thoughts go out to you Kysa. It certainly did take a lot of strength for you to go and see your Pop. The happy memories is what you need to hold on to. The life a person has is what defines them, not their death.
I really hope you try to enjoy your week. There are bigger and brighter things for you just around the corner.
