Sad but Happy news

The doctors have reported that Dad only has 2-4 months to live. Dad had asked the same question yesterday and Mom had filled him in. It is very sad but also joyous news knowing that very soon he will going to his Lord.He said that he has been for a while now. Dad is slowly becoming weaker. We are limiting his sit up time outside of the bed to 1 hour a day.We have sit up for Dinner each night around 5pm.It continues to be very frustrating with Dad and his paralysis. He continues to say that he is a prisoner in his own body. Please do come and visit through all this. He is quite sharp and in pretty good spirits.The Doctors do not know long it will be before he slips into a comma so please do come and enjoy somelast great moments with Dad. I still marvel at ever time that I visit and the many sporting events he reminises about:)On Wednesday evening, we were watching the 1984 Hamilton High School Basketball championship dvd. What a neat compellation. Dad was at all the tournament games though out their state chanpionship run. The out reach of prayers, visitors etc etc is just the gratest. It is so neat to see all the former Parke Davis employees visiting Dad these days. What a lot of stories he can tell about Parke Davis over the 37 great years. Love you always Dad.
