I am happy to read that Dad is continuing to fight and show some signs of improvement. I am sure it is due to all the love and support from his wonderful family. I'm sure the visits mean a lot to Dad and to Mom (especially when it involves all of his favorite things - there's nothing like music and a good equation! Has anyone tried a Hershey bar with almonds?)
Sending a hug to all for your continued strength and lots of hope and prayers to Dad.
With love,
Debbie
Thanks Debbie we really appreciate it. That sounds like another good idea the... the Hershey's bar... Virginia thought of a manhatten as well...;-)
