Sorry to hear about this Bubba.
Death is part of life and we don't always get to choose our time.
So enjoy, live life in a robust way. Remember your mom and always make her proud.

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE - WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE. IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

Sorry to hear Bubba.
I am with you in the "dumb" state and taking care of family. My good church gradma Pauline's funeral was on Friday. She battled lupus and other illness for 40 years. Tough cookies they are. Praying for you dude :)
