PIE IN THE SKY. Monday, June 29, 2009. So he quit smoking. And waited. The longer he waited, the larger the tumor got. And the weaker he got. His heart is got weaker too. Now Rod is in ICU. The tumor is a very bad cancer.and it is everywhere. It grew very large very fast. Like an octopus with tentacles. Around his windpipe. His artery. His spine, arms, lungs, back, face. My dear friend Rod. Sleep tonight and tomorrow we see what we will see. And we will take what time is left second by second and...I pro...

PIE IN THE SKY. Wednesday, August 12, 2009. One of the kindest souls I have ever know. One of the dearest spirits to walk the earth. One of the most giving beings I think I will ever meet. Bodie Trout-Pielaet-Jones. Human soul in the bodie of an akita - shepard mix. Our sweet companion for over 15 years, stopped eating the day our dear friend Rod Mcatee took his last breath. A dog with tail and ears up, prancing to and fro, from campsite to campsite along the small road. I miss my sweet bodie girl. A...

PIE IN THE SKY: September 2009
http://dinapie.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
PIE IN THE SKY. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. We went to Royal High, in Simi Valley, California. When we were growing up there, it was mostly citrus farms and small post war houses and a bowling alley and k-mart. Parts of it were know for its high rate of domestic violence, and in some neighborhoods, a dangerously high water table. Now it is America's most livable city. Of course, none of us live there anymore. She evidently wanted Margo and I kept out of the loop about the cancer, and her impending death.

http://dinapie.blogspot.com/2009/07/give-rod-7th-sense.html
PIE IN THE SKY. Wednesday, July 1, 2009. GIVE ROD THE 7th SENSE. Rod woke up. He is struggling to stay in this world very, very hard. It looks like labor. Father Mike pasued.and then said "I like that". He then said he was sure he would pass before me.and perhaps would be able to let me know. I laughed and said "perhaps I can use my 6th sense to contact you, in order to find out if the 7th sense exists". We both laughed.but our inner minds said "hmmmm". So here we are. Rod struggling to stay here....
