Winding Down

 I stayed with Jack at the SECU Hospice house last night. It's like getting lots of little naps as they come in every so often to check on him. He is in and out of it, more 'out' then in this morning, but his granddaughters came by the window to say goodbye this morning and he perked right up and said I love you to them. I hijacked the TV and the room and am showing him pictures all the time and he sometimes just stares at the screen and seems to recognize things. A picture came up of a trip we took to WV and I said "Do you remember that trip to WV" and he sat up a little straighter and said "I sure do, that was a fun trip we saw that bridge" I think he knows more of what is going on than I think. I was telling the nurse about something he did and he looked at me and said "what are you telling her that for?"  LOL. He has a nurse that comes in in the mornings and he calls her Sister and she calls him Brother another that he calls by name when she comes in. I took this selfie with him yesterday and he said "oh I don't look good enough for pictures".

I told everyone that we will have a visit at the window for anyone that wants to stop by between 2:00 & 2:30 today. I will try to get him moved over to the window so you can have short visits with him. I can open the windows and his room is right out front so easy enough to walk up and talk. The kids will come up to the window and hand me things I joke it is like having our own takeout window.
