Irving's Story

Life My wife Faye works for the Leader Post as an accountant. As I previously mentioned, she had 3 children. We have become a very close family since the difficulties we experienced when we first tried to blend. We now have 5 grandchildren of which I am a very proud granddad.My son Andy has his iron ring in electrical systems engineering;My daughter Regan graduated with high honours in linguistics and works for Regina Public Library; and my youngest son Stephan is going to the U of S studying toward a degree in Financial Management. My three other sons (I consider them sons instead of step-sons) call me pop and are all working. The oldest,Michael works for the Leader Post as an apprentice pressman; Cory works for IPSCO; and the youngest,Clayton works for Walmart.Michael has given us a grandson,Logan and a granddaughter,Rowan. Cory has a daughter,Elijah and his wife is expecting another child in March of 2005.Clayton has a daughter,Crimson We also still have two babies at home...I mean two female cats-Muffin(22 years old) and Ralphy (1 year old). We had to put down Frisko last year(she was 25 years old at that time;she was deaf and almost blind. She finally became senile and I believe she was ready to let go. She hated gouing in the car...but she seemed to be calm and resined to riding in the car to the Vet Clinic. Since I continue to go on in age (as most of us do inevitably)my health has continued to decline. As well as the clinical depression, I have great difficulty contolling my Diabetis and have been in pain from rhuematid arthritis and lupus. Just recently I ...Expand for more
have been experiencing episodes of syncope...I lose consciousness at random and without warning. Tumor or epelepsy have been ruled out ...and the neurologist cannot give a true diagnosis yet...I just have to live with it.I am taking Dilantin which he continues to regulate with regular CT scans and EEGs I had a heart attack two years ago and underwent angioplasty...and a stent was implanted. I still experience angina now and then...the angiogram showed other blockages...but these were not ready to apply invasive proceedures as yet(just something to look forward to).Hopefully it won't be necessary to undergo bypass surgery.I guess I have to live with it. Other than my poor health, I continue to enjoy many blessings ...the support of a wonderful family; a loving and comfortable home; tyhe amusement and pride of partaking in grandkids' activities;...what more could a person want in the twilite years. I occupy myself in keeping our home neat and tidy; attending grandkids' sporting and cultural events(hockey,soccer,ballet,etc); keeping in touch with friends and relatives by Email; reading and sometimes painting watercolors I also like cooking and I love to prepare homemade soups,casseroles and chili which I proudly send over to the kids. I also enjoy cataloging and organizing scads of pictures sent by friends and family over the internet. I then distribute these in folders to various friends and family members. So in the twilight of my stay here on earth I am keeping busy looking after family, complaining about my aches and pains...and enjoying every minute of it
