Vigil

My plans from Friday didn't make it off of the drawing board. On Sunday, Dad presented with pneumonia. By the late evening he was unresponsive and this morning we ordered hospice.

Friends are beginning to come by and visit. Not all want to see Dad, and I'm sure he understands. As a kid he was always advising me to "remember people at their best".

My biggest fear of this day was that I wouldn't be able to make the decisions that Dad wanted and stick to them, but it worked out OK. I put the necessary paperwork in with no hesitation and no second thoughts.

Now we wait.
