Moving moments...

dad is still hanging on - to something - we don't know, or God is making sure he finds the perfect blondes for him. Lisa the hospice nurse came in this morning and she had originally told us it could be hours, when she came back at five it was then said within 24 hours - it is all a guessing game for everyone - no one knows except for God.

It has been wonderful to have his sisters and brothers and cousins here to listen to the stories and to watch them take care of their little brother. Dad was the second youngest, so it is hitting all of them pretty hard too. An amazing experience has been watching his sisters with mom say the rosary with him, but tonight it was even more amazing and very tearful to see all the women in the house and two of them men say it - I couldn't keep a dry eye.

it has been five days and even though we all enjoy being with each other you can tell the nerves are starting to be short - like Sean said when this is done, we'll have to not see each other for at least two weeks.

so we continue to pray that dad will find his way home and that God will open his arms for him and take him. It has been a very long journey - he has been fighting since the beginning and continues to fight now.

much love to all,
