Its 10:00 am and Jack has not gotten up yet. I have checked on him several times and he just says he is not ready to get up yet. Yesterday he talked a lot about how things are losing importance to him. Over the weekend he was all about trying to get help to finish projects he has going. Yesterday it just didn't' seem important to him. He says he is at peace and wants to spend time with the Lord today.
I found about this recently. If you have not seen Denzel Washington's videos you should take a look.
I really had no idea these existed till Jack showed them to me the other day. I have not gotten to watch all of them yet, but will find some time to do that.
The Hospice Social Worker came out yesterday and today the Hospice Nurse will stop by. They have brought so many things to read it is hard to look at some of it.
They are arranging some travel oxygen and a travel wheelchair so that we can go up to the lake house for a couple hours, (I wonder inside if this will be the last time he sees it). I want to get the grass mowed and the a few end of season things that need doing. I will worry about selling it later on. It has always been our spot to hang out and I don't see myself up there without him.
Hospice has arranged a for a group of veterans to come and do a little ceremony honoring Jack's service to his country if anyone wants to stop by the house, it is tomorrow 10/13/2021 at 1:00. I will get Jack out on the front porch for it and hang his Marine Corp flag up. I will take lots of pictures and video if I remember.
Every morning I get up and think This is the day the Lord has made, We will Rejoice and be Glad in it Psalm 118:24

Remember we love y'all and are praying for both of you during this time. If Billy and I can do anything to help, please don't hesitate to call us. I know we are about an 1 1/2 hours away but we will be there as quickly as possible.
We really enjoyed our visit with y'all last evening. So glad you have good neighbors and friends close by to help you. What a blessing!
So many of my church family have texted, emailed, called, or came up to me at church to let me know they are praying for my brother. God has indeed blessed our family!
I would have loved to have been there today for the military event, but I didn't know about it until I read it on your blog. I am sure that was a touching time for you and Jack. Looking forward to seeing the pictures/video.
Love you, Sister!
