Mom had shoulder surgery on Friday, and so she’s been hopped up on pain killers for a few days.  Dad, yesterday, felt lung pain and a total lack of energy, and so my Uncle John–dad’s older brother–took Dad to the hospital. 

They released him a few hours later, but I haven’t heard any details as to what was getting to him in particular yesterday.  I’m going to try to get more information today, but it’s a busy day, so we’ll have to see.

Update: The doctors concluded that Dad was going through nothing more than “cancer pain”, which doesn’t sound genuine to me.  It, in fact, sounds more like a non-explanation.  “Cancer pain”.  Bullshit.  Hopefully, Dad takes everyone’s advice, and ditches Bryn Mawr for some help at Penn or Jefferson hospitals.
