How does my dad respond to the question, "does it hurt?" With a quote from one of our all-time favorite movies, Tommy Boy ("not here or here so much, but right here"). Because that's just the type of man my dad is.
What did dad think about his hospital dinner (because yes, less than 24 hours after brain surgery, he is eating solids)? "Eh, Kari's green beans are better."
And what does dad want to be doing right now? Lifting weights and running at the gym (makes you think twice about not wanting to get in a workout).
Believe me, sister, this man has shocked and amazed us all with his incredible strength and positive energy and he is without a doubt the most worthy, deserving, loving, kind, gentle, and caring man I have ever known.
So move over Gerard Depardieu, lead actor in the 1994 chick-flick/teen romantic-comedy, MY Father is the real Hero.
Love & Light, Rachel
