Slow Steady Road
Respiration slowing down, longer pauses between breaths, no pain: that’s about all we can say for sure.
Frank is simply running out of steam.
Fred and Lisa said their good byes today – they return to Tahoe tomorrow morning.
Mike will do some yardwork so Frank is not embarrassed about his lawn! the neighbors have been out and cleaned up their yards — dad would be fussing and fretting to get out there too — so good ole’ Mike will be his surrogate.
Each day here I am impressed by two things:
- Dad’s inner reserve
- How lucky we are to have Mike as a Son In Law
Along with the tough parts, there are always good. God is good, all the time.
Breathing is so labored that it’s amazing he has the strength to continue — but he’s setting the schedule not us. We’re just here to support him.
