Sunday

Scott here.

I've been here since Friday evening. Dad was pretty good on Friday and all through yesterday. He was alert and awake most of the time, and interacted pretty well. He did complain that he didn't feel good, but seemed pretty good nonetheless.

They got him up in the chair for a couple hours on Saturday, which he seemed to enjoy.

An old friend, Dan Ritchie stopped by to see dad on Saturday afternoon, and was here for about a half hour. I hadn't seen Dan in probably close to 20 years, so it was nice to catch up.

Today hasn't been quite as good. Dad has looked really tired and has been sleeping quite a bit. He indicated that he felt worse than yesterday, so it looks like he'll still have good days and bad days.

He was up in the chair for a while, but wanted to go back to bed after an hour or so.

I'm leaving soon to head back to Des Moines, and aunt Debbie will be coming up on Tuesday.

Keep fighting, dad!
