Not So Pro 3

[GCJenks204]

Evening knuckle bumpers.
Same old *s-worde at work.
Called the parents this morning to check on them.
Dad is needing some help now to make some changes for mom.
Shes got Parkinson's disease, and its getting worse quicker than he anticipated.
He and I have been at odds for a bit on a few things, like getting her a lift chair to help her get up. She mostly watches tv and naps during the day now. He thinks if he gets the lift chair that she wont be able to get up on her own, and that will lead to her being bed-ridden.
I cant make him understand that the disease IS GOING TO DO THAT. Doesnt matter how much they excersize and try to keep moving. Eventually, it takes that away. Its a neuromuscular disease.
I understand his side of it. He doesnt want to lose his sidekick and best friend to this, but I dont want him to cause her a lot of undue suffering thats going to prove needless either.
Probably going to butt heads wif the old man in the next couple of days. Just want whats best for my mom.
Sorry for the TLDR.
Seems like bosslady and I are constantly helping out someone whos sick for the last 5 years or so.
She just lost her younger sister last month after a 20 year battle with Leukemia.
If you dont think thats rough, you havent been through what she's been through. That was a tough gal right there. Bless her heart.

Sorry to hear this. There is nothing like losing a spouse/ parent while they are still alive. Mom’s declining dementia was especially hard to watch. It was incredibly hard as Elliott never got to know grandma the way everyone else did.

Anything you can do to make mom’s life better or easier now, just do it. I mean if it means showing up with the lift chair in the truck do it. Dad will forgive you when he she’s that it has made her life a little easier.

Stay the course Brent. Take it easy on Pop's. He is losing his best friend in life and prolly hard for him to accept. He may think the power chair would make your mother weaker in his mind. Showing love and extra care for family is a special trait. I believe in carma and it will come back around to you, the boss lady, or even your family at some point. Anywho, don't get discouraged, I know it's easy for me to say. Just keep putting Dem feet's down one in front of the other bro.

Did I post this already? Last bit of my hackery b4 It gets Super Sausaged by @huskihl. That filter fits the stack tight enough to hold the original filter housing in place. A clamp will fit if ever needed.

Looks good Steve! The pleated filter adds at least 2 horsepowers, whether you need em or not.
Cant wait to see how it comes back wif all the snausages n stuffs.

I like how Fiat now puts an "end of service" notification in for their trucks.
Brilliant actually.
Keeps you from spending too much money replacing chitty parts that just keep failing.
Must be for the Chebby con-verts.

Thanks Tim.
I have to keep Bosslady at bay. She LOVES my mom, and wants to help her any way she can.
Dad still thinks hes doing right and trying to keep mom moving. He is, but to a point.
And here I am in the damn middle.

You and your alias are shady as hell you can’t fool us. Its ok, its Adam’s job to investigate and shovel the chit if needed around here. He was quick to call out alittlebullchitter and have him dispatched.

This ^^^^^^ Brent.
I lost my mom in '95. Struck by a car crossing the road at night. I wasn't really speaking with her much.
I can never get that back. This continued on with my father. He was part of the reason I kept my distance even though they were separated. I kept my distance with him too, although not quite as much. This led me to loose contact with much of my family over the years until his death in '15. There is much of my actions I regret. Life is short. Spend what time you can with them both. It is well worth it.

If you need an ear, even just to listen, my PM is open friend.
