Family Matters

What am I reading today? two books, actually. One is Diana Gabaldon's new book "An Echo in the Bone". Its book 7 in the "Claire and Jamie" series. I love her books because of the detail and humanity of her characters, her turn of phrase, and the descriptiveness of her landscapes and geography. The other book is about alzheimers... and speaking of alzheimers, my father is going down hill rapidly despite good care, good doctors, and medication. So, the family is a-sizzling about what to do - and whose actual responsibility it is. I know, in the end, its my moral responsibility because he is my father; however, I have no legal authority and responsibility because Dad's Lady-Friend has the power of attorney, the Medical authority, etc., etc.,

I love my family. FML.
