Still fixing things.

Dad has been a little more lucid today.
He must be getting use to the meds.. 
But between moments of semi clarity he is having some strange dreams..
Telling us how to fix things...
Asking about phantom football scores.. hope all those hallucinations are happy ones.

There that should work!

He  sometimes recognizes who is in the room... wants to sit up.. lay down... drink some water.. sit back up.. lay back down...  well you get the idea... The old guy is a tiny bit demanding today..  
And we still love him like crazy.  (Maybe I shouldn't use the word crazy, considering.)

Josh flew into today.. Mike's Jake tomorrow.. along with cousin Julia and Laurie.  
The support has been amazing.. From blog and Facebook comments, to  
Snail Mail letters and Phone calls.. 
There is no doubt that he is loved.. that Mom is loved.. 
Having my siblings here has been my best medicine and I think that Mom would agree.
Topher Mike and Sarah are way better than a Xanax or a Prozac.


Thanks to everyone who has been there for us during this awful time... Family and friends are truly a blessing!
