Oh David... my heart goes out to you. I know it is hard, but your every action and decision to continue to honor your father with your faithful love and presence is not wasted, my friend. It gives your mother encouragement, and it gives the highest example possible to those others who see it, be it your children, siblings, friends, relatives... it is worth every moment of pain because in the end you will have absolutely NO regrets.

I remember late one night a month or so before my father died when my Mom was pushing him around the house in the wheelchair because he just needed to see everything in the house. He was having trouble remembering where he was and couldn't understand why he was like that, and told me, "I just feel lost!" with such sadness in his face. It was heart-breaking to see.

Stay strong. I believe with all my heart that the rewards of showing honor to your parents in ALL situations carries tremendous emotional and relational healing powers for every heart thet sees and experiences it.

Pete, Steve, and David I feel for all of you. I have not lost either parent yet but I have been through the dementia thing with my wifes aunt that lived with us for a year. Not easy to see them go through that. Keep doing what you already are. You will not regret it.

I didnt know Cris had a transvestite...

Good morning all...seen a few sprinkles today!!

Saw one of my many doctors and the bandages came off today...just compression stockings!! I can swim again!!

I have a massage scheduled with April tomorrow morning!! She is the massage therapist for my Chiropractor...(no,no,no on the happy ending)

I wanted to get a haircut this morning but the barber changed his hours.

I am now waiting for my niece to pick up her car before I head out to the barbershop.

I walked the puppy at the park and took some pics...including this one of spongebob and patrick!!

Edit: OMG Spongebob is missing an arm!!

The transmission is okay, I hope. I think it was just the filter coming apart.

I hear that loud and clear... the weather guy just told me that I've been out moving cattle in 105 heat index.

Of course, I am a bit south of WI, so naturally we'd get more balmy weather here.
