Phil's update Tuesday November 22

[Guest guest]

Hello

Please forgive my lack of more frequent updates as we have had lots of

visitors and have not had the time between that and caring for Phil I am just

frankly exhausted and have not had much time or energy to write.

Phil is jaundiced especially his eyes His skin tone resembles that of the

Asian culture, or baby jaundiced than straight out yellow. His appetite is good

and he drinks about 2 quarts of Gatorade and lots of water every day.

Monday was very crowded. His Dad, brother, Aunt, Uncle, two cousins, and my

mother were all here at once. And there are more visitors today. It is great

but tiring.

Our family fluctuates between joyful laughter and memories to deep aching

sorrow and everything in between. Dan is at Thiel today meeting with the

Registrar to work out his classes. Tim is very watchful and protective of me

and

our dog Ebony stands guard over Phil making sure no one hurts her " Daddy "

Me?

Oh my God how do you deal with losing someone this wonderful? I thank God

for every minute of our 20 years together but yes I want 20 or 30 more

nevermind that 25th anniversary we won't get. I can't imagine my life without

him

don't want to and seldom go there it hurts too much.

But to look at me you would probably not see all that I hear I'm strong and

similar phrases and if I am well it is God not me.

We are uplifted by the prayers the cards, the calls, and the visits from all

of you.

May God continue to bless each and every one.
