Wednesday Update-holy cow has it been snowing

Sorry for the lag in blogs. We have been spending extra time with Dad. The family was able to enjoy lunch together on Easter.Dad was asked to pray and rolled right into the Lords Prayer full strength. Dads appetite was good as usual. Mom was able to do the annual easter egg for the kids in the adjoining appartment. Still keeping up those traditions even in the tough times. Dad is still in very good spirits but is weeping a little more now. We have seen some steady regression and definitely more sleeping. Dad has even eaten 2 of his most dreaded foods in this past week. JB made him chocolate covered BANANAS and Ray Terpstra helped him with a TUNA sandwich. Both items Dad would not eat in the past. The nurses have sadly reported that Dad has 2 to 4 weeks to live. They believe it may be closer to 2 weeks. Boy how quickly this has gone. It has been a short 5 month ordeal since dignosis on December 22. We have experienced many great times with Dad in that time. Boy what a great out reach you have all been to him.as well. The love is amazing. What a treat it has been for Dad to see all his old Pfizer(Parke Davis) friends.
Please continue to pray for Mom in these last days. She has been holding together
quite well. God is definitely helping all of us through this. Please pray that God can give me the wisdom to write an awesome eulogy for Dads funeral. It has been real hard so far putting it together.

God Bless and I will try to update this a little sooner.
Tim and family.
