Happy Birthday Dad *pics*
I forgot to mention that Friday was Jess’s birthday. He made it to 77! It was a gloomy day, we were all scared he would pass on. A lot of times dying people wait until there’s a special occassion to let go, and we were all worried. Today he’s having a great day, he’s alert and talking, and recognizing us. Which is scary too, because often people seem to get better right before they pass on. He keeps saying I wanna go, and we know what it means. Most the time when he talks he parrots something we’ve said, because he can’t find the words, but one thing he’s never forgotten is how to say I love you (too).
Every morning I have the dogs pop up on the side of his hospital bed, and say hi. Today when Libby popped up he said Awwwww. "Isn’t she cute?" I asked him, and he replied "she’s so cute". He said hi to Sam when he popped up, and Sammy was just whimpering and tail thumpin’ like crazy when he heard Jess say his name. I lift Mya up because she’s so short, and not heavy, and he petted her, she was soo happy. She never leaves his side. She’s always sleeping right under his bed. She always has.
Jess was in such a good mood today that I got out the camera and got a few pictures of Chris with him, and one with me. He was actually smiling in all the pictures, but he’s so weak that he can’t really see it that well. When Pam gets here I hope we can get one with her too. I’m happy Chris was here for this morning. Understandably he’s very choked up, and it makes him happy/sad at the same time.

This is a priceless video, if you don’t cry a little, you don’t have a heart. You have to really turn the sound up to hear him, and he was smiling because he thought I was taking a picture.
That really is heartbreaking. You’re doing a great job of looking after Jess and Chris from all the entries I’ve read. Keep it up, it must be so hard, but it clearly means so much to him. xxxx ((hugs))) xx

Him doing good is called rallying. He may do it more than once though so don’t think it means he’s going to go real soon. He might and he might not. Alot of times when people are rallying they are waiting for someone. Is there anyone that hasn’t said goodbye yet? If so get them there if at all possible. I’m sorry you are going through a hard time I’ll keep you in my thoughts.
