To be able to enjoy another "good" day was a blessing to us both.  We had sunshine, good visits, and Key Lime Pie.  He was setting in the recliner today when I returned from getting a few things at the store visiting with his brother and his wife.  It was so good to see him out of the hospital bed.  I am grateful for the good days.  He deserves the good days given all that he is enduring.

His endurance was tested this evening when we traveled downstairs to see a movie like we have done so many times in the past.  He had a very trying time getting back upstairs.  The emotions began as we both realized how weak he is getting.  The good feelings we experienced the last couple of days disappeared pretty quickly.  He didn't sleep well last night and never rested much today at all.  He is now sleeping very well as I set here blogging.  I hope that his night is good - because that makes my night restful. 

I am hoping like crazy that he has some good days while our son and his family are here for a visit this week. We are both looking forward to having all the kids and grandkids together.  We ask for prayers for the unknown.  We ask for understanding, strength and courage as we keep moving forward.  We don't look back. We focus on one day at a time.
