Another day....
Apr. 18th, 2007 12:38 pm*stares and reads comments over past two days and mutters "In public cafe will not cry" over and over and over*
So far I'm not...but it was amazing to log on and see all these wishes. It means alot ...
Dad's eating very little, mostly soft, but you can see how hard he has to work to breathe. If nothing happens by Saturday, I'll return home and come back May 10th as planned (son gets AAS on 11th) prior to Phoenix Rising. Then down to NOLA. If anything happens between now and then, Mom plans for us to go after PR (will come back here) to take ashes to NJ for interment in family plot. Otherwise, I will return again after May.
There is nothing more doctor can do for him. Anything would be prolonging and he does not want that. Yesterday, he did not want to be 'touched'. He let mom brush his hair but 'grumbled'. He can speak one or two words before becoming winded again.
Hospice coming in to change bandage on small sore on his back and I'm up at the wireless coffee shop in Covington, VA about 13 mi from there apartment to catch up emails and check in.
Thank you all so much for the encouragement here.
Been reading flist and commenting where I can and miss you all
