here we are another day, sometimes we have been thinking God is cruel, but we know he is just preparing to bring dad home, it is just so hard to see him like this, we just want him to have comfort and be at peace. We agreed - it sure isn't like the movies!
He has been restless and was seeing someone last night, he couldn't tell who it was but that someone was there and he kept trying to get to them. Mom has been so strong and an angel. It was heart breaking last night. Around 8:00 dad said he wanted mom to lay with him, so she got into bed and spooned with him. It just makes me cry typing this, the love that share after 43 years - it is amazing and very rare to find, at least now a days.
Lisa his regular hospice nurse will be in sometime this morning - and I know all of us kids are still here. It's like we leave and we feel guilty and when we are here we feel guilty because of not being with our kids, but we all agreed we wouldn't want to be anywhere else. And dad would want all five us to be able to go through this together and be there for each other and for him.
I'll update later today.
Much love to all,
