Good Morning 6/10

snowy @snowy22315 (191040) • United States 10 Jun

My dad is in bad shape, and I fear this may be the beginning of the end. They are having a very hard time getting him up and going to the bathroom. He is very weak and has landed on the floor a few times and at least twice the...
