...I'm relating this to the family for a couple of reasons... First off November 4 (national presidential erection) is coming up on us soon enough and it really is time to consider who you are voting for the next president of our ole USA...
Please vote if nothing more...just make sure you do your homework and you're are sure of your choice...it's so important and don't take this lightly...(I was glad to hear that Bernadette did her voting already, as have I also & voting Republican
FYI...) Good luck on your decisions and chose wisely...(Enough said on that.)
Now on Matters of the HEART.... An update with Mom, she is doing well and still gaining wait almost daily...she has good humor and now waits anxiously her
"Care Giver" (Did I get that right, Ralph...?)... Her memory has improved greatly
(short term) and overall she is really in the positive more than she has been in long time... she sees Dad more often now and they have even gone out to eat etc... (The Village Inn) ... Now with that said and done let's talk about Dad...
Dad has also been doing well, of course he's still in his wheel chair, but otherwise
his spirits are much higher than the past; mostly due to Mom's more frequent visits and going out together etc... I can't tell his current medical condition; but
hopefully it may have improved somewhat due to his more regular nurse visits he has now (which he didn't have before...shame on us.).... So you see not to get your hopes up but things are "looking" much better for now... And yes I do expect Dad to see several more B-Days down the road... For those that have been praying Thanx a whole lot 'cause it's been working & for those that have been staying in touch pretty regular by phone THANX also for this and anything else that might have helped THANX, THANX, THANX... 'cause of these things even though small has helped in some form or way...
And many many THANX to Babette, Patrick,
Debbie, & last (but nut least) RALPH (my dear brother :o)... )
I'll tell you another THANX we owe because of her great endurance & patience etc. our "Care Giver,"...Petra. I'm making a "FAMILY" request...
(for those that read this blog to send her a simple message of THANX for all her efforts she has made (& many you are not aware above & beyond; not only what is required of her...she is truly a Godsend, I believe...)
Her email is:
Pertravipec@aol.com
...Thanx everyone for all your support, efforts and regular contacts with Mom & Dad....etc.
Love You All Dearly...

...Good Blog, Bernard, keep up the good work...
-Take Care-
It's impossible to predict "how many birthdays" Dad will have but I'm glad both Mom and Dad seem happier now then they have been for quite some time. I agree - Petra is a Godsend and she does go over and beyond her call of duty. We can also thank Monica for recommending her to us.
I've not been able to see Mom and Dad for weeks as I picked up a virus which manifested itself into bronchitis and of course did not wnat to pass on the virus to them. I did, however, receive a number of "get well wishes" via phone calls from Mom and even one from Dad!
...Hey, Babette, hope you're feeling better soon, my dear...
and hope you are getting some rest meanwhile... (Hopefully you are under MD's care , of course...
Didn't even know you were/are in such bad health...)
Well, I'll say a few prayers that it goes "beddy-bye-bye" real soon...
-Love You Dearly...
-Bernard- :-)
=================================
Actually, Dad has not been in a wheelchair for over a month. However, on Columbus Day, when I took Dad to see the new movie, Appaloosa, we did agee to use the wheelchair to get to the theater, since it was a significant distance for him to have walked. But when we went to visit Mom after the movie, he used his walker with no problem.
...Thanx , Pat, for the more current update on the wheel chair...
I wasn't aware; it makes it even better health-wise, of course...
Am glad he's not using the wheel chair & I know he is to...!
-Take Care, Now Y'All-

Many Times Over...)
