Len, Kerry and Julia visited Dad at Breck Home on Saturday, 9/12. he was doing very well, all things considered. He seemed pretty content and was very talkative. He certainly isn't the same old guy anymore but he was having fun talking about old time music and his kids attempts at playing it. He also seems pretty quick with a joke and still has a bit of the old spark.
We also met with hospice care and it seems that Dad qualifies. He'll get some additional services from Medicare that way.
If you would like to visit, just let us know. We can give you directions, etc. It's very important to check with Breck Home nurses before visiting to make sure Dad is having a good day. Otherwise he may not recognize you. We are trying to keep "commotion" to a minimum because that seems to trigger Dad's anxiety but he would love to have you go see him and so would we.
By the way, the picture is of Dad dancing with nurse "George," who is not a man despite the nickname.
