BobT-47P15 Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 That's because I'm going to Nashville (again) tomorrow (Fri 4/24) for a week. My mother in law is ill due to a heart problem which can not be fixed due to her age and physical condition. Mary Ann has been there with her for a while, and will continue to stay with her for an undetermined time. So, since I still work, I stick around here and will go there from time to time. Aside from doing things around the house, my one main amusement while there will be to attend the Tuesday night jam session at a club, sponsored by the Music City Blues Society. I got to go in February for the first time. A nice bunch of guys and good musicians. This pic is from Feb......I usually play harmonica on jam sessions. Or a little on the washboard. So, enjoy your peace and quiet. Quote
greg g Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Best to you and your's Bob. I went through a similar situation a couple years ago with my Dad. Not easy, thankfully his time of suffering was short. Quote
Young Ed Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 My Uncle is that way now too. He has an implanted defibralator that keeps going off. Everytime it does it damages his heart. So that had to be turned off. He has gone from the nursing home back to my cousin (his daughters) house to live out his last days. Quote
Norm's Coupe Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Sorry to hear about your mother in law. Have a safe trip to Music City. Does sound like you'll have a little fun while there though, despite the reason for the trip. Quote
Don Coatney Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Bob; Sorry to hear about your mother in law. There will be a Friday night cruse in a week after you arrive at the same place you and I went the last time. I will not be there as I am on the road as shown above in my current location. Quote

1940plymouth Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Bob, Good luck to you and yours. I hope your Mother-in-law will be ok. My cousin is 67, just had a bad heart attack on Sunday. Don, while you are in Boston, have you ever seen the Grasshopper weathervane on Faneuil Hall? One of my ancestors, Shem Drown built it in 1742 Bob, one more thing, since you are a musician, have you ever heard of the Gibson Brothers? They are my cousin that had the heart attack sons. They play bluegrass and have been in Nashville numerous times. Again, have a safe trip and I hope all works out ok, Bob Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Posted April 23, 2009 Bob, sorry to say, I've not heard of the Gibson Bros. I would say they must be pretty good. Thanks to all for the kind words. Quote
Don Coatney Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Don' date=' while you are in Boston, have you ever seen the Grasshopper weathervane on Faneuil Hall? One of my ancestors, Shem Drown built it in 1742 [/quote'] Have not seen it. If I have time I will look. Quote
John Mulders Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 Bob , sorry to hear and all the best. Just today heard about a collegue, who moved away from the island, that he has been diagnosed with Non Hodgkin desease. The guy is mid thirties ! Being treated now but that is a shocker. Just shows you that life is short and you also should try to enjoy it ! John Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted April 23, 2009 Author Report Posted April 23, 2009 Don, I don't know if Chance has seen that surfboard or not. My guess is, he probably has. He was going to come to be Feb jam, but didn't make it. Or, if he did, he gave up and returned home, since I was late getting there. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted April 23, 2009 Report Posted April 23, 2009 could not be much of a place...I mean..I did not see any chicken wire seperating the performers from the audience..head em up..move em out Quote
