The part at the botto was written a few days ago and not posted.
My sister Mary Beth called and said my dad wasn't taking anything in without puking, he was not doing well at all. Called back and had the hospice come and evaluate him and said he was dying. I cancelled sat, mon and tues clients, planned on going to Lawrence sat morn, early. Not to see my dad but to be with my sister. Didn't want her to be doing it be herself. She called Friday night and my dad had died at 8:30. Even when you know it is soon it is so shocking. To think you don't have any parents anymore is so strange. The three of us had decided a long time ago to not do the hospital, medical thing. I felt so good about her just letting him go. A brave girl to not panic and call the ambulance to get the blockage fixed. We had asked God to not let him suffer and drag on. God blessed it so much. I am sorry Mary Beth had to be the one seeing him do so bad. It is Samuel's graduation this next weekend. We had said when dad did die we would do it the next sat. She has the service for the 30th in Lawrence. That way Donna will be back from Nigeria and we can all get there.
My friend Kathy who had the brain surgery, did so good with the surgery and honestly I felt like it was just what they do is the biopsy but that this kind of brain tumor isn't usually cancer. Hers is. Probably # 3. I did her hair this am and was so encouraged by her faith. She is confident that God is in charge, and rests in that. Anyway just wanted to touch base.
I got to walk in a ALS run/walk. It was a 5K on a gorgeous sat morning. A man was there with ALS, an ambulance brought him to the run. It made me cry so much. I could just see mom there struggling to breath and no energy. What a horrible disease.
It was a good mothers day. The three boys showed up at church, that was nice. I then went shopping by myself and bought bras and underwear. I have never been so excited to do that in my life. I hadn't noticed how they have not fit for some time. I then went to the sport s place where Branon and Samuel coach on Sundays. It is so good to see them do that. I came home to Michael there and MOllie. Brandon and Samuel brought pizza.
