Thrilling News; Uncertain Views

I just have to include in my journal the good, no thrilling, news I received this afternoon. My doctor informed me that the results of my carotid lab tests were fine; in fact, they were actually better than the ones that I had in July, 2005! I really don't know how that happened, but I am, oh so happy!

I was also happy to learn that my brother-in-law is adjusting to the idea of moving into an apartment/condo and giving up his home and acreage of 50 + years. I'm sure he's not happy about this but, today, he was putting up a pretty good front for his brother and brother-in-law. One of the things that upset him most was that his son had planned this move without his knowledge; as a result, Bill refused to take any of his medications and even refused to eat for 2 days. This will be a very difficult move, not only for him, his wife, but also for my daughter who loves him dearly (the feeling from Bill for her is mutual). He has always been a grandfather figure to her, and for her to visit Bill weekly will be almost impossible due to the increased traveling distance. Getting to and from his doctors will be more difficult, too. My hubby, Don, has been taking him; however, after the move, the trip will be more than 4 hours round trip for Don. I just don't know how this will work out. I pray that things will work out for the best for everyone involved. Please keep Don, my daughter, Bill and wife in your prayers. These are my uncertain views: For Bill, the best...More difficult for the rest?
