Kerry’s Dad

Well Kerry’s Dad is still with us. Like I told "Mom" HE is not ready for him yet. There is still a Master’s Plan going on. Well tonight all the brothers are for the first time in years sitting down and talking. When I left the hospital they had been talking for over an hour. But……
The most exciting part is what else happened tonight. Kerry’s parents have been married for 60 years and this past week them taking everything off has been really hard on her. She has been so shaky, sad, heart broken etc. because the man that she has slept with is going to die. Mom has dementia and today it finally came to her that Dad was going to die. I have had her all day touching him, swabbing his mouth, washing his face and taking care of him how she has in the past. She was still crushed I could see it in her face and feel her spirit breaking. I pulled Dad over to the far side of the bed, took off his oxygen and told her to pile up in bed with him. She said (laughing), ohhhh no kidding. I said nope Mom crawl in bed with Dad. She crawled up in the bed, rubbed him, his face, chest, arms, talked with him and laughed and cried. She did this for about 45 minutes. She said she needed to go back to the hotel (she was having alot of tummy things going on….lol)I got Dad fixed back and walked across with her to the hotel all the time her laughing and smiling and telling me she was at peace now and she knew that would be their last bed together and how happy she was. We laughed and cried and prayed and thanked God for the peace He gave her. Thank you God for showing my heart what I needed to do. All 6 boys were there in the hospital but Kerry and Dorian were the only ones that came to see how HAPPY there Mom was. Dorian even took a picture with his phone and told his Mom Thank You as he cried. This will leave a lasting impression on them as well and help ease their pain since they have been so worried about their Mom. The nurse told ALL of them to come to the room and see how happy she was and it is sad that only MY Kerry and his one brother came. I hope and pray that all their differences will be put aside and they can resolve their issues so they can be atleast happy around Mom. I am so exhausted because now for 3 weeks I have been staying at the hospital and working with Dad for 12-14 hours a day. But, I also feel God has blessed me by giving me this time with "Mom and Dad" as well as Kerry as he has been off work since his Dad got so sick so he could spend time with them both. How fortunate he has been to have a job he could do this with. God is WONDERFUL.
Hugs to all and thanks for your prayers and thoughts. They are at this time just making "Dad" comfortable.
