Update

Well, I know that all my updates are pretty depressing - and I am sorry for that. But not much progress is happening with Dad. In fact, it seems things are getting worse. I talked to him on the phone yesterday and he said he felt like he needed to go over to the other side. So, we went in to see him to make sure he was ok. He wouldn't get out of bed, and was pretty confused about where he was. I had to force him to go to dinner, which I don't think he was happy about. Once there, he was confused about how to sit in the chair...? It is heartbreaking to see him this way!

I know a lot of you have asked about my mom - she is doing okay. Still working full time and is with Dad after work everyday. So, it's definitely taking a toll on her, but she is hanging in there. As for my family, we aren't able to get to Dad's everyday anymore. We now go every other day. Dad has such a hard time with my kids, and they don't understand why he acts the way he does. So, I try to go when he is in a better mood. I hate for them to remember Dad this way instead of his happy old self...
