Milk Shakes and French Fries


I am with Dad again today. He got sick this morning while the aide was here so I came over to help Annie. Kathy ended up here too. We have all hung out here together. He doesn't want to eat really or even drink much. We did go get him a milk shake and fries though he didn't eat very many fries (crazy I know). He won't let go of the milk shake though, I tried to put it away for him but he said "over my dead body!" Obviously he still has his sense of humor. He is very achy today so we really can't even move him. He keeps waking with a smile on his face...I had a very sweet talk with him today. He told me he couldn't go yet, he had too many people to love, can you imagine him loving anymore? Imagine what we can learn from that...my Daddy has taught me so much but one of the greatest things he instilled in me is the pure love of Christ. Dad definately knew and lived that throughout his life. He has always been a great example of unconditional love.

Thanks Jen for keeping everybody updated. Its hard to read without crying. I just don't know what I will do without my Daddy. Saw him Sunday he was alert and smiling. And his sense of humor was back.

I hope you don't mind me crashing your family blog. I just read a few of the entries and was impressed with how touching they are. Thank you for sharing this experience.
