It’s weird how disability impacts life…
My assistant’s father has had a brain tumor; it’s non malignant (Thank God) and the surgeon managed to remove 95% of it. He’ll be fine, but need to a rehab hospital to recover. I told her to make sure that someone checked on him everyday. I know from my activist work that people tend to get neglected in those places.
She thanked me for concern and said she’d make sure her family took care of him. She’s a very responsible girl who loves her daddy bunches, so I’m sure she’ll watch him closely. After all these horrible discussions, I brought a pizza to celebrate her birthday- a happy ending! I was glad to help.
