Going to visit my Dad for his 79th birthday today. A long trip. Due to the trek, I do not know whether I will be on for a couple of days. Hope Dad remembers me despite his accelerating descent into Alzheimers, that is and my wife and children. In a way we are going wondering if we are saying goodbye while he can still communicate with some clarity......
Blessings on you all,

Hello, Mark and Addy and ALL the others: if you get one tenth of the pleasure out of my posts that I do out of your company, we will get along fine.
Have a good safe trip, Mark. My mother died at age 79 in a nursing home. Sometimes she recognized me, sometimes she didn't. OR SO IT SEEMED! During 4 years of her "incarceration," I came away many times with the thought: Who knows what they know? Who sees what they see? Just when I was about to give up in frustration, my mother would say or do something remarkable. Remarkable...isn't it!?
Bestest to you and your family, Tom
