Sad News

I know I haven't updated much and I swore I would be good about that being I am home more now, but I have some sad news to share. My dad (my kids' Papa) was diagnosed with Stage III Esophageal Cancer on Monday. It's been some tough news to take in and honestly it hasn't really hit me yet. I think as adults we (at least I) feel the need to reverse roles with my parents at times and be the caretaker that they have always been for me. I just want to be there for my dad - but also my mom. They are both such strong individuals so hearing/seeing them crying is difficult right now. But most of all I can't help but to worry about the impact of this on my kids. My dad and Teague have a bond you don't see everyday between a grandson and Papa. Teague doesn't understand and I just pray that we never have to explain it to him because my dad is going to beat this. Please pray for our family and especially the medical team assigned to him as he is to see the oncology surgeon on Friday. In the meantime, please keep up to date with the Caringbridge website I have started for him: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/vernmohr

I hope to get some pictures on here soon and hope to feel back to bragging up my kids again in the near future.
