THANKSGIVING 2008

Just a quick update. After having a great birthday with lots of people and lots of love that we told you about below, Mom is really sleeping a lot. Tuesday afternoon she was pretty alert for 4-5 hours. Wed we only got her for a few minutes at a time after about 3 in the afternoon. She had a pretty rough night last night and is sleeping well this morning.

She has always loved Thanksgiving , having .... how she puts it "ruined her family Thanksgiving dinner of 1927, by arriving right in the middle of it" ...... We had fears, worries, etc, that she may do the same thing today. But luckily for us she didn't. It is now almost 10:30 in the evening and although still sleeping, she is still with us. We woke her us when all the company came about noon and she went out to her chair, and was up but being awake only off and on ... to say hello to grand kids ... then about 3 we put her back to bed and she has been asleep since then. We don't know how many more opportunities we will be able to enjoy her awake, but her warm and loving spirit is still being felt around her. When she does wake up, after asking for some water, She keeps telling us of her love for us. She is really a trouper and we love her more than we can put on this page.

We will keep you updated.
