Fathers Day 2010
What do you get for the father that has everything? Well this fathers day I wish I could give my heart to dad along with a kidney for good measure. But I can't and there are things in life we just can't change. So far dad has survived three wars, five wildass kids, 30 years in the Army and four by-pass surgery. Now he's trying to survive heart failure, kidney failure and colon cancer. He's a tough old bird who so far has outlasted every family member he's had by 43 years. Every hospital stay I learn a little more about him. Did you know when he retired as Command Sargent Major Ray L. Mackey he was the 82nd higest ranking man in the Army? Me either, but I've set and listened to so many great stories he would tell me, he's a walking history book. It's like that song by Montgomery Gentery, I'd set cross legged on the floor while he would tell his stories of the war. But we can't change dads outcome, only keep our memories and I have enough to write a book! I'm the one that spends the most time with him, even when I was young I knew I was his favorite son. That is what I feel like, I would watch sports with him and go to races with him. I had three brothers growing up, but I was the one that hung out with him. So if God could just do one thing for me, let me have one more Fathers day with my dad.See More

Papaw Not Doing Good.
My papaw isn't doing good, he is now 110 lbs. and in and out of the hospital. They will have there 63 anniversary on June 29th, lets hope papaw stays strong. He doesn't want to eat now, so the whole family is on pins and needles. I got to go visit him at the hospital, he has never seen me till then.
