Today was very emotional for me. Dad was given another blessing. Thanksgiving certainly wasn't the same, but I was able to spend it with dad in his room, a lot of the time alone with him. I read to him, talked with him and held him for most of the time. I'm grateful for the time I had to spend with him today.
The doctors are giving him periodic doses of steroids to help the swelling come down. This should last for a couple of days.
He had his eyes open today, but not very responsive. Rob and Marvin came to visit and brought him an Elvis beanie baby. He smiled.

Susie,
ReplyDeleteI am so very sorry, this year was not a very happy Thanksgiving in our home either- we spent a lot of time with many tears: These past 4 months have been nothing else but the tears.I think of you all often and so glad to hear that your brother's could all be here as well. Your a GREAT Family. Hang in there, much love to you you all.
