Not sure how long

I know I just made a triumphant return a few weeks ago, but I'm not sure how long I will be able to stick around.Monday I lost my job. They were very hopeful, but unable to keep me on due to my high salary requirements.Monday evening we found out that my father in-law's cancer has returned and is inoperable. The only option he has is chemotherapy. We, as a family, have decided to close the transmission shop and try to sell it. We don't know if he will be around for 2 weeks or 2 years. He mentioned that he wants to stick around until the end of April. He said if he can hang on until he gets to see our baby, his life will be complete. He is 45.

That is really too bad and I'm sorry to hear it. That has to be really tough for you and your family.

Very sorry to hear about your job and your father-in-law, Jared. 45yrs old is way too young. Hopefully, the Chemo helps and he makes it well past next April. My prayers will be with you and your family. We are here for you if ever you need to talk, rant, vent or whatever.
