5 years in J-land

I haven't been visiting around J-land much lately and I am really sorry about that.  I do know that it is around the 5th year for J-land.  Can you believe it?  Five years?  Where did the time go? 

I bought my first computer right around the time AOL roled out J-land.  My first journal entry was on September 2, 2003.  I have been through a lot since then and so has J-land.  We have made friends and lost some (I still think of you Pamela  -- his1desire).  I have cried on some shoulders and tried to be there for others to cry on my shoulder.  We have been with each other through all the good stuff also.

Who would have thought that a decision to start a journal 5 years ago would have gotten me here today?  It has been a great 5 years (although I realize I have basically been MIA for the past year).  I hope we have many, many more together.

My dad -- part 2

I called my Aunt Betty and she agreed I should talk to my dad's doctor.  So I called him.  The doctor thought dad had trouble sleeping, I explained the trouble wasn't that he couldn't sleep but that ALL he was doing was sleeping.

The doctor and I talked a little and he said he would talk to my dad about upping his meds.  Sure enough he called dad and called in a new prescription for dad.  The doctor said it could take up to a week to see a difference and for me to keep in touch with him.

So right now I feel better about things.  And I am thrilled that my dad didn't get mad at me for calling his doctor.

My Dad

I know everyone is sick of me and my life woes.....But I am really worried about my dad.  All he wants to do is sleep.  The doctor had put him on an antidepressant a little while back -- and he wasn't sleeping so much then, he was crying all the time.  I made dad call the doctor and he went to see him yesterday.  I guess I should have went in with him to see the doctor but I didn't.  The doctor did nothing but took some blood. 

I know that depression can cause a person to want to sleep all the time (been there done that), of course something else could be wrong.  Dad goes back to the doctor in a couple of weeks. 

I don't know if it's ok for him to stay like he is until then.  I called dad's sister -- my Aunt Betty -- she suggested I call and talk to the doctor myself.  I told dad this and he says he is ok, he's just tired that he will get out of bed, that he has nothing to be depressed about (yeah right) and he tells me I can do whatever I want to do.

Great.  Ball back in my court again.  So I guess I will call the doctor.  I'm not sure if he will talk to me but I guess it is worth a try.
