The Parental Units

Well, my father’s pre-diabetes is now diabetes; he’s been put on medication but not insulin as of yet.

And yesterday, my mother stepped off the 8-foot drop in front of their property and managed to land on both of her feet and then fall right on her tail bone.  She’s very lucky that all she broke was her ankle.

I’m really starting to get worried about both of them.

   Youch! I’m glad your mom is OK. Diabetes is manageable, and it sounds like your dad is trying to eat right, etc.

   It’s tough seeing them age. My father-in-law has to have some kind of prostate procedure, which I know is routine but still.

   Hugs to you, sister.
