My Dad almost died last week. This time last week I was basically saying my goodbyes.
On Friday he went into a hospice (a truly amazing place with some incredibly hard working people).
Went to see him this evening and he has made such a remarkable recovery that he is going to be going home!
Nice to see him on good form but incredibly fucking bewildering considering we were told he had days to live!

I ran alongside Jules all the way as it was her first half marathon and she found it tough but completed it without breaking her stride. Here are a few pictures;

Well done guys. Though it doesn't look like Jules is having the best time of her life…..
You're so right Giles.. I was in pain! Then he wakes up this morning and says, " Do you fancy doing the Bristol 1/2 with me?" [emoji30]

I'm not shure where this belongs, so I put it here because I need to get it off my chest.
My father died today because of cancer. We had a very distant relationship because he had never been a part of my life. Hell, I spend more time with my kids in a year then he spend with me in 41.
Still, it makes me very sad, which is kind of strang for me.
I was told yesterday evening, that he was in hospice now and wanted to visit him there today. When I called them this morning at 9:00 to find out how he was, because I wasn't shure if I should take a break from work and visit early or drop by after work. They said he is doing fine, considering the circumstances. One hour ago I was told he died surprisingly at 10:30.
Even with all the emotional distance between us I am very sad I didn't have the cance to say farwell while he was still alive.
Damn it, I need to go for a walk to get my head free.
