Look What The Cat Dragged In

[MoparManJim]

Hi you all, I'm back. LOL
 
Had a busy Spring & Summer with things and also with the family. Almost lost my father-in-law back in April due to a brain tumor. So I help my mother-in-law out when I can.

Being 'kind of' new to this forum and having read a bunch of (troll-y-ish) posts from older threads I was honestly expecting someone to make a joke about the 'cat dragging in ducks' but I guess the duck jokes were beaten to death.

Welcome back and I hope your Father-in law is doing better!

Thanks for the warm welcome back you all. What has it been? 9 months? longer?   

Anyways, back in April, my wife and her parents got talking again, a month before that in March my sister-in-law got married. 

Alittle about what happen t my father-in-law. Late April my father-in-law went down hill real fast, he been battling a brain tumor for a few years now due to being a military-vet.. and was taken chemo for the tumor. The docs all told him he could not take a blow to the head. So what happen? my sister-in-law husband that doesn't know jack shit was up at my wife's mother place having her dad work on the car (This was before we all was talking again) and dad told him do not let this car part (starter) fall and hit me. I guess the dude said ok.. and soon as my sister in law text her old man (50 feet away out side under the car) instead of him holding the part and waiting, he grabs his cell and quickly replied to see what she was up to leaving the starter fall an crack dad on the for head and sliced him open. Then a week later my wife mom and dad ran into us out in town and we got talking. Dad then was not filling good. Well him and mom bought there grand-kids over to visit (our 16 year old likes to help out grandma & grandma as he's a grand parents boy LOL). Mom (my mother-in-law) was worried about her husband.. Well fast forward to late April 2013, that last week in April, which was on a Sunday afternoon. They came over to visit, dad was not acting like himself. Well they visited for at a hour and something before dad said her was starting to get a headache and he was starting to get things mix up and for getting things. Well they left, around 5pm that day I had the Mrs's call mom up to see if everything was okay.. no answer.   

She called again.. yet no answer  . Well around 6pm she a hold of our son. He told his mom what was going on and where grandpa was at and that the ambulance was in route to there house. He said dad was not at all breathing  . I told the mrs's we'll hang back here at the house an follow up with them so that way the house would not be flooded over there by people as that would be the last thing they needed. Mom said to the mrs's that she was going to have to go with her husband, and that she called in her other daughter that just left the house like 10 minutes before dad went down. GET THIS her old man had her stop at a gas station in sligo to get him a subway sand which made to his likings because her didn't fill good and his tremors was starting up (he doesn't have tremors at all) , WHILE her mom waited back at the house to help out with dad and to watch the kids (the youngest is her own daughter). Anyways dad was taken by ambulance and bought somewhat back to life on there way to my nieces school parking lot and medcat to Pittsburgh. Where they had to do a 3 hour surgery of brain surgery and remove a blood clot that hit his tumor. In the process of the doc doing the surgery, he by mistake nicked one of dad's nerves that is now healing. When dad came out of surgery, he was in ICU for like 21 days maybe longer and the first week he was out and didn't respond to anyone. But due to the clot and dads chemo, he has no right side as in arm or leg or foot. After he came to he then transfer over to a rehab place in May, then fast forward to after the 4th of July. In Mid July he came home. 

But the funniest thing I heard was, I guess, when dad was laying in the hospital bed and mom was going down each day to visit and work with him. I guess my youngest sister-in-law husband was leaning over dads left side of the bed trying to talk to him to get him to respond.. Dad does not like him at all (I really wonder why). My youngest sister-in-law husband did something and next thing they knew was he got upper cut by dads left arm. You see the reason why dad don't like him is not only for what he did to him, but because he doesn't work, have a place of his own, or even try to get a job.   

Okay besides what took place above, I been working well tinkering on the real charger and just have a few loose ends to take care of this fall. Helping the mrs's out when she needs help. Working on a few model projects and improving my skills a lot. If you all like to see what I been working on with a few of the projects let me know.

We didn't loose him, but we came real real close to it though. 

[Tilar]

Glad you straightened me out, I guess I read it too fast. I corrected my original post. 

[MoparManJim]

I was not aware I was in outer space.. dang it! I knew I dug this money out to pay for something on the way.. but couldn't remember for what though!

[JB400]

[Fred]

[JB400]

Where's Sherlock when you need him?

[MoparManJim]

What's wrong with this thread?

I remember people around here loose to love to complain about things being posted on the wrong areas of the forum.. so I'll post asap in the correct area. 

I don't want to get my tail feather bit.   

[Fred]

You can post anything you like in my "Hijack" thread Jim and no one will ever be able to complain.  I give you permission. 

[MoparManJim]

I just posted a thread in the Car Guys Discussion area of the forum, it took me a few days to figure out where that thread was or would be best posted at.

Welcome back Jim.

I had a chuckle. Last weekend I was driving through a town near me and saw a "Lost" ad on a telegraph pole and it was for four ducks. I thought someone was playing a joke and realised it couldn't be because we are on the other side of the world...so I guess it does happen!
