Dad looking up - diaconate is not

Dad is back sitting up and the hallucinating has stopped.

He's not out of the woods, though. Thanks for the prayers.

The canon lawyers are still doing their jobs, but it's already August and getting too late to submit all the materials in time for the deadline.

And there are a variety of other problematic issues in the mix anyway.

So once again, it's a no go.

I think I'll just content myself with remaining a lay worker in the church.
