Please pray
for Red…
The day we
expected is closing in on us. Kerry’s dad has gone seriously down hill in such
a short period of time. A week ago Kerry and I were returning from our two week
vacation, sharing stories with Red and Chris, handing out gifts and generally
being glad to see each other.
Last Friday
a volunteer from hospice came by to visit Red and together they sat and chatted
for 2 hours. Red was sharp, focused and glad to have the company.
Last
Saturday, Red suddenly started moving much slower and needed to have me help him stand up when he needed to make a bathroom run.
Yesterday
(Sunday) he made a bathroom run in the morning after breakfast. He spent the
rest of the day in his recliner, sleeping.
Getting him to bed was challenging. ZERO mobility!
Today, it
was obvious that there was not much time left for Red. He was ready to go home.
So now we do all we can do to make him comfortable.
There are
too many details to share and such little time. So instead of posting each day as the final days
pass, I am making daily notes and will make one posting when this chapter is
complete.
For now,
please pray for Red and the peace he deserves.
We love you! Please give Poppie our love .
