Another Update

Hey everyone, I know I have been slacking on the updates. I have been gone for most of last week and just not getting around to it during the days surrounding that week. So, here is the latest.

Dad continues to decline in his condition. Yesterday he was telling people that he thought he was going to die today. That being said, Christy spent the night down there last night and Mike is working on coming down. But last night was a pretty good night and they have him on a new medication that is targeting some specific problems and it has helped to control his pain to a point where his morphine dosages are down. That is good because with all the morphine he was barely awake ever. Christy has told me that today is a better day and he has been out in the garden for the last hour. This is a big difference from last week when he couldn't stay awake for more than 15 minutes.

So thats the update, not much to say other than he is getting closer.

I'll work to stay up to date here for those of you checking -- John
