Dad, Grandpa & Great Grandpa Paul



My father-in-law, Paul, is not doing well, but he's still hanging on, my husband and daughter, along with 2 sister-in-laws, a brother-in-law and fiance are at his bedside in Texas. Viola and her daughter, Jane, also visited him on Sunday too. John and Kasey have been there since last Wed. Time is short for Paul, yet as Kasey told those of us who couldn't be there, "Grampa's still got his personality that's for sure! He's been joking with us & the nurses too in the past few days."

Paul has lost a lot of weight, he is hardly eating anything (drinking a little Ensure everyday, but not much). Kasey said, "I am glad to have caught the smile. Thought everyone would love to see him :) Grampa's wearing headphones that are attached to a hearing device with a microphone, his regular hearing aids were broken. (and I tied rubber gloves to the top of the headphones (blue) because the headphones were too big for his head and kept falling off."

We all are holding Paul in our prayers still, and thinking of him with love. xoxoxox (Praying for the family down there and those who can't be there as well).
