Our life as taken on it’s own quiet pattern in the last few days. It revolves around 24 hour medications given every 2 hours and sips of water or bites of food. He is particularly fond of the Butternut Squash soup we received from dear friends as well as 3 a.m dishes of vanilla ice cream. When Bob wakes we have a chance to visit a bit. He likes finding someone there when he wakes up and will smile and laugh quietly. He is noticeably less alert this morning. Hopefully he will be able to enjoy some time with those that have just arrived. I have said it before but it can not be said enough, this is a peaceful, sad, sacred and holy time as we sit along our beloved husband,father,brother,uncle and friend. As he moves from life to life I am reminded how all things; life and death,joy and sorrow,pain and peace are part of what life is about. We must experience all in a full worthwhile life.
Thank you everyone for you good thoughts,prayers and love. We feel wrapped and comforted in midst of our time.

Fantastic site, I really like your writing style. Very distinctive and concise. On a lot of blogs people just drone on and on, but not you – very nice. Keep up the great work!
