???

I'm spending a lot of time back and forth between Bountiful and home these days. My dad's health has been rapidly declining and we're basically waiting for the end to come. I'm very grateful for his sweet wife right now and wonderful Hospice care workers. It is hard work keeping someone comfortable while waiting for them to die. I guess you can't know this until you've actually gone through it. I'm so glad that so far we've been able to keep him at home. It's been about a year of real visible decline, and almost 2 weeks now of his being completely incapacitated.
I doubt I'll be posting here for a while. Prayers for a comfortable, soon, merciful passing would be appreciated : )

it was so good to visit with you yesterday, even if for a brief time. I'll be thinking of you each and every minute of every day.
