So Much To Tell

I know, it's about time.  Sometimes this is so hard.  I was ready to write today but our power was off from 9:30am to 3 pm.  Now it is much later and I'm getting tired.  Just gave Walt some cheese soup because he dreamed about grilled cheese sandwiches.  It will come back up and cause him incredible pain, but he is not comprehending those things much these days.  He started on a very small dose of morphine on Monday.  He had to get off of the tylenol and ibuprofen because it was causing stomach pain.  Poor guy spends most of his day sleeping now.  Some of that is from the medication, but mostly its because he is not eating.  He is in his hospital bed now during the day.  Not at night.  He told me that if he was going to sleep there at night that I would have to be in there with him.  Have you seen how skinny those beds are?  
So, The Party!  It was wonderful.  I told everyone that if the party was the day before Walt wouldn't have been there.  It was a very bad day.  Saturday he got up and decided not to eat anything because it would cause him to have another bad day.  We got to the party at 1:15 and he made it to 4 pm.  So many friends and family.  The guest book was signed by 79 and I'm sure some missed signing.  Walt got to talk with so many that he hadn't seen in awhile.  We have lots of pictures that we will share.  The DVD that Amanda put together is so great.  We will add pictures from the party and send it off to those who want it.  
We had a houseful over the weekend.  Auntie Sharon came in on Monday so she was already here.  She gave up her room and slept on the couch so the Rodriguez family of 5 could have the bedroom.  Good thing they are all small (well, not Oscar).  David slept in Walt's man cave on the hospital bed (Walt hadn't been in it yet).  We had such a good time with our friends.  I have much to say about that, but it will have to wait.  I am going to attempt to post a couple of pictures here.

Dina is taking the picture, Thomas and Naleah are playing on the kindle in the other room. Where are you David?

Okay, I'm done for tonight.  Thanks for tuning in and for all of the continued prayers.  Love you all.
