Another pretty good day...

So, since Friday, when Dad was put on hospice, he has been visited by 3 RNs, an LVN, a social worker and a chaplain...And most have called me to give me an update of his present condition.  A couple of them have even stopped in to see Mom...

Mom has been struggling a lot.  She has been going through highs and lows, but more so lately.  The good thing is that she does go and see Dad a couple times a day, and for the most part, enjoys her PT and is continuing to get stronger all the time.  Although, when she experiences a low, she doesn't have patience for anyone, and doesn't want to eat or do PT.  This is really tough on her.

Dad has been remarkably lucid the past few days.  He has been awake and conversational when I have been there.  They say he has been eating well, and although, the conversation does not always make sense, it is sure good to see him smile and hear him say "thank you" when I tell him that I love him.  I will take as many of these little stolen moments I can.

Much love!
