Dad Days ~ October 2016

Quite hard to believe that we were coming

up on one full year of Dad being

at Wesley Woods and pretty much 

not being the same man he was

whatsoever:( 

Also one full year of my mother,

sisters and I making sure we were

there for Dad EVERY SINGLE DAY

without fail and loving on as many

patients as we possibly could

each and every day.  

Same routine day after day...

staff gets him up, feeds him breakfast,

wheel him to some form of an 

activity for him to maybe watch 

or just to the table,

one of us arrives, feed him lunch,

staff puts him in his chair

that the Moores so graciously shared

with us, he naps, staff gets him

up, we come back, feed him dinner,

sit/visit/watch the zoo;), 

staff puts him to bed,

lay out clothes for the staff to 

put on him the next day

and kiss him goodnight.  

(He's completely dependent on 

others for EVERYTHING.)

He had another fall:(

Loved this man!

Dad doesn't smile much 

and he rarely speaks.

What I would give for one of his

long stories.  Oh the things we 

take for granted...

A "smile"!!!!!!!!

About to give THE LOOK!

Sometimes he looks so good

and normal.  Such a cruel disease.  

Visiting on Halloween!!!!!!

He sometimes lights up at the sight

of the kids...but really doesn't remember

them which is so, so sad.  

He's still my dad and I still

love him no matter what!❤

NOBODY tends to him like

Grandmother.  WOW, just WOW.

She's a testament to true love❤
