Hi there, Almost 20 years ago, I had an opportunity to attend school in Atlanta, GA. However, I had an epileptic sister (half-sister) who was living with her grandmother at the time. She was five years older than me. The thing is, she was living in a house that might as well have been in the backyards of a country. She lived with about 10 other cousins and family members. The plumbing wasn't working, and she literally had to take a pot of water to flush the toilet. I couldn't believe how she was living. So, I decided to forego attending college in Atlanta. I stayed in Chicago and got an apartment with my sister. I didn't like the way she was living. Fast forward...she died less than two years later from a horrible seizure. There I was at 20 years old, with the responsibilities of an apartment and real adult life. I didn't quite know how to switch back. Long story short, without going on too long, that decision changed the course of my entire life. What I want you to know, is that some opportunities do not come back around. Some opportunities, once presented, YOU must make the choice to take them. I believe your father knows that you love him with all you've got...but his life is in the hands of God. I hope that you will recognize what season you are in, the one you've worked so hard to get to. This is your time now. I hope you pack your clothes and belongings, move to the new area, and visit mom, dad and family when you can. Best, Yves
