My sister wrote yesterday. My father and I are estranged, but he's in the hospital. I haven't talked with him in 11 years, then 15 years before that. I called him this morning. We didn't have long to chat, but it sounds like he's doing well & will recover nicely. Odd to talk with him after so long, but good. It's something I've been meaning to do for a while and nice to think I could cheer him up in the process.
