Eight days til 71. A new age to live with. I surprised Ivan with a blue spruce to replace the huge old cedar tree that was in our backyard when we moved in. It was lost to a windstorm last summer. Haven rode up to Papa in the alley with her permit to start driving. He looks so happy for her. He is still smiling. Violet ran in a track meet in Menominee for the Eskymos. Kelley put ernest money down on a house in Carthage Texas. Michelle is sending Papa an Azalea Bonsai tree and encouragement. Cammy watched Bella for us while we spent another day in the ER. Today I took my dear hubby for more care for his symptoms of Stage 4 Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the pancreas. The cancer is becoming more difficult. He had a better evening, though. It is getting harder to stay as upbeat as we have been able to most of this past year. We really have enjoyed our very ordinary days. One at a time. He has not felt up to travel or visits. But he has been able to enjoy his walks. The new puppy and our family. It is still hard for us to really believe this disease will take his life. To imagine life without him. This is going to hurt. I want to ask him this question so I know how to make a good day happen for him.
What would a good day look like to you?
I’ll get back to you all with the answer to this question.
