It’s quite remarkable that a 79-year-old has the patience to write this much over text and not a single lower case letter. Dad’s text this morning is both comical and impressive and for those of you with older folks in your life, you know about these messages – they are your window into the reality of getting old and how often times the kid becomes the parent: BRY! NEED TO CANCEL COFFEE THIS MORNING. I GOT DIZZY AT STOPSHOP YESTERDAY AND STUMBLED INTO THE FRUIT LOOPS. THEY GAVE ME A CHAIR TO REST BUT DR. B WANTS TO SEE ME TODAY. MOM IS DRIVING BUT HAS HER CARDIOLOGIST APPOINTMENT AT 2. HER TEST CAME BACK WITH ABNORMAL CARDIAC ENZYME TEST. I THINK IT’S THE VANILLA YOGURT SHE ATE. I PUT MY CHOLESTEROL PILLS IN THERE AND SHE ATE THEM! SO SHE’S PRETTY MAD. CAN YOU TAKE HER? IM UP TO 15000 STEPS A DAY AROUND THE YARD BUT A GARDNER SNAKE SCARED ME OTHER DAY SO I’M BACK TO DOING IT INSIDE. THE GIANTS ARE AWFUL. REALLY BLEW THAT GAME. I THINK THE PATRIOTS WILL BE FINE. UNCLE AUGGIE’S FUNERAL WAS GOOD. DID MOM REMEMBER TO TELL YOU HE PASSED AWAY? 99! HE USED TO SNEAK ANISETTE COOKIES TO YOU. WE WATCHED THE SCHITT CREEK THIS WEEK. I DON’T UNDERSTAND IT. IPAD WONT TURN ON AGAIN. CAN ONE OF THE KIDS HELP? I HEAR FROM JACK EVERY WEEK. COLLEGE IS GOOD FOR HIM. LOVE TO JANINE AND KIDS. XOXOXO.
