Praise be to the Lord.
My father's wife died in March.
My father has advanced Parkinson's and cannot care for himself.
I have had to move in with him.
My wife walked out on me twice since March.
We have to come up with a large sum of cash for our daughters to get back to college.
I cannot continue to live with my father, because it would destroy my job and my marriage.
Thus, I have to move him down with me--nursing homes here don't permit visitors so we can't inspect them.
My father is coming to despise me, because I am having to make difficult decisions.
So, I praise God because I have yet to take a monkey wrench to anyone's head, haven't drunk myself into a stupor, nor have I swerved into oncoming traffic.
I am still together.
Praise the Lord.
Amen.
