No Words...

Not often I'm I left without words, but I sit here today struggling to find the right words to let everyone know the events of the past 48 hours.

Today is a very difficult day. At both Mom and Dad's insistence, Todd and I went to the OU/Tech game. It was wonderful!!! Dad would have loved the tenacious defense and the butt-kicking that the Sooners handed out. Because the game was late, we spent the night in Guthrie and headed back this morning.

I called Mom this morning to check on the status of Dad's situation to find that he had gone done hill in a hurry this morning. He was very weak and fatigued on Saturday when we were there. He could barely walk from room to room. I was very fearful for his safety and for Mom's. She assured me that she had it under control, but he tried to get up in the night and fell. Mom had to call Melva and Robert to come help get him up. God bless our friends! She then called the Hospice nurse this morning and they have brought in the continuous care team to stay with her tonight.

Dad is unable to move at all on his own and he is extremely uncomfortable. He is coherent at times, but also is speaking a lot of jibberish. It is very taxing to speak at all. We all are praying that this will not last long for him, as he would absolutely HATE it! We pray that the Good Lord will take him home soon so that he can have his "one day of comfort".

We are so thankful for the wonderful friends and family that we have. We are so loved and supported that if this could be made easy it would be.

Please continue to pray for our family. I will update the blog with services information as soon as we know anything.
