Just wanted to share that Dad has taken a turn for the worst. He is really struggles to breath, and his breaths are very labored. He is really having a tough time. Mom and I contacted Hospice and visited with them this am about help with Dad. Not sure at this writing when we are moving from hospital or where, or how. He may go to the fourth floor into skilled nursing part of the fourth floor wing. Both of his doctors visited with me this am and assured me we are in the final days, or the short rows, as Dad would say. He is aware of it too, but is really struggling to just breath. Not sure what is ahead, but will post as we learn things. He is being a trooper, strong, yet loving... and always trying to do his best at what he is asked to do by the doctors and nurses. Mom and MK are holding up ok, or ... as well as can be expected. Mom needs your prayers, as does Dad.
Our best to you all.... OH BY THE WAY.... Heather has some exciting news for us too... but I promised not to tell yet till she says I can...................
