Over fifty years I've worked my fingers to the bone. Fifty-some years I've been saving, scrimping, making sure my family had what they needed, waiting for my rainy day. I've looked forward to the things that I would do in retirement for over half a century, once my kids were on their own. Stage four colorectal cancer the doctor tells me; chemotherapy, he says. I sit in this house all day, I'm still waiting on my rainy day; it looks like my rainy day wont get here until stage five. Son, don't wait for the clouds, they don't seem to care.
