Wednesday (Day 30)

Yesterday was pretty uneventful. He was a bit of a sour puss to my Mom & I. Brad says he perked up later in the evening. He learned that pressing the red button gets the nurses to come, and his favorite nurse he can call by name. It was one of those evenings where he is pointing at something and trying to tell me something...and I just cannot pick up what it is. It's like playing Charades with no timer....you just keep guessing and guessing. I ask him to be patient, as I am trying to "hear" him. I know I would be going nuts if I were him, trying to express myself.

I am going to Cali this weekend and will have limited posts, FYI. I will likely post Friday, since I am sneaking in there to see him before my flight...but then not again till Monday evening.

Also, some friends and I are planning a Silent Auction to raise funds for my father's care. If you want any information on donating items and/or attending the event, you can email me at petrofied@gmail.com. Several items are available already and more are on the way. The event will likely take place in the Seattle Metro area sometime in October.
