This picture was taken Wednesday when I made the trip home and took Mom to see him. The aide had shaved him and he was eating pretty good. The aide said she wanted to take him home with her. Even when he was taken to the hospital in the ambulance, he had to have his New York Yankee hat on.
This post is not to make anyone feel sad, though I'll put the page away for a while myself. Dad and I spent several hours together in the ER last Friday. He is scared. The post is to ask for your prayers for Dad and Mom and yes, the family. I'm 80 miles from home myself.
On the trip over Wednesday, I played Christmas CDs. Judy Garland sang "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and these words are from that. We'll muddle through somehow.
I'm on my way home, then to the hospital. Mom doesn't want to go today as she knows Dad would rather be home. Good thoughts are appreciated.
