Journey Update

Dad had quite a few challenges when he was in Newfoundland fighting wind and it rained the six days he was there.  On Friday evening, Dad stayed with his brother, Norm, in New Glasgow.  Mom, April and I decided a girls road trip was in need and went to visit dad in New Glasgow.  Dad advised that something did not feel right, but decided to continue journey hoping he would feel better.  After we left to head home, we received a phone call from dad asking us to turn around and come pick him up.  He was coming home.  He went straight to emergency and spent the night waiting to see a physician.  He has a hemorrhoid as big as his index finger with a few smaller ones.  Dad is going to continue his journey once he heals, but unfortunately, we do not know how long that will take.  If you don't know what a hemorrhoid is, it is a broken blood vessel from straining.  The winds were so strong in Newfoundland to cause this.  Dad will continue his journey and we will keep you posted as to his recovery.  Thank you to everyone who has offered accommodations.  We will stay in touch with you all!!
