Still Hanging in There

In a world where everyone is so ugly to each other I feel like reporting something beautiful at least it is to my heart. My Dad who has survived two Hospice situations, lived in a rehab for almost 2 years, fell out of bed twice once needing a hip replacement during the GD lockdown is still hanging in there. Mom went through hell getting him home but she did it and a nurse comes daily to help Dad, in and out of bed, to bathe and eat.

Yesterday when I was there, I bent over to kiss him and ask, "Daddy you know who I am?"
him "Well you called me Daddy, so..."
me "yeah that was a hint, do you know my name"
him...he sees my dog and says, "Bella"
me "Dad you know my dog but not me?"
He locks eyes with me and smiles a smile that just melts my heart - even though his elevator is stuck between floors.

Lately his blood pressure is swinging up and down. Mom called emergency services but they wanted to take him to the ER - she said no - she doesn't want him near all the covid patients, I thought that was a good call. A doctor comes to the house and redoes his meds but if he dies at home, so be it. That is what he wanted before he lost his mind, was to die at home. Mom seems to be at peace with that too.

The CUTE thing to report is that Mom and Dad still hold hands and it is the cutest thing to see. I've seen it all my life but there is a whole lot more beauty and love watching those two withered hands hold each other and r
adiate their love. At least Dad recognizes Mom completely.

91 yrs

Dad's birthday was Tuesday. Mom is getting to see Dad three times a week now just to help him eat which he isn't fond of doing anymore. Siblings and myself still can't go to that nursing home to see him yet. However for his 91st birthday on Tuesday we all went outside to his window to see him. I pounded on the window to wake him and when he saw us he threw the covers back and started to get up. (He can't walk any more) We all started yelling NO (he can't hear anymore either) and putting our hands up showing NO NO and shaking out heads finally he realized not to get up. This is why he falls out of bed, I guess his alheizmers makes him forget he can't walk.

The sun was brutal, we all got super sweaty and miserable standing out there seeing him but HE SMILED so I guess that was worth it. On one hand it is pathetic to have to see a loved one like that but on the other hand at least we saw him.

Afterwards we all went out to eat together - some ate his favorite foods in honor of him and at the end we sang him happy birthday as if he were with us. It made us all feel better I guess.

Dad is a tough old bird - he has survived HOSPICE twice now where everyone thought it was the end but he came through. Siblings and I are all talking about how we never want to go as far as Dad is. I asked one of my bro's does he think if Dad knew this was going to happen to him, would he have taken himself out and he said yes absolutely. His mind doesn't realize it anymore so there is nothing Dad can do to make an exit. As long as his insurance holds out - the industry will keep him alive.

So when does one make the choice to exit so as to spare their loved ones the agony of watching themselves deteriotate? Robin Williams planned it well and is my hero for doing so, only he chose a different way to go than I plan to.

chatillion's guide to holiday eating...

In the past at family gatherings, I'd put a small amount of food on my plate and sit at the table. That was my first round, time to sample what I wanted for the next round.
Often, I'd hear "What... you're going for more?"
I'm done with the guilt-trip comments.
Today, I filled my plate like I was at an all-you-can-eat buffet. One trip!
No 'why are you going back' comments.

applause

So take it from me... if you've got family concerned about your intake of food in this holiday season... Load 'em up as you'll only get one round.

The true story of thanksgiving.... Many have heard....

those clueless conservatives tell of how the noble savage saved the starving pilgrims, in various ways. Lobsters to fertilize corn crops and such. Pilgrims were, as all proto Honkeys, slow to learn, VERY slow, so the first peoples decided to bail their skinny arses all out with the first cornucopia Thanksgiving feast. Called Tstukat' neenie Mongotsokabubu in middle high Massachsetts and Wampanoag/Pocasset, it meant 'Honkey slob no starve'.
Well, the natives were indeed involved, as were many fire roasted turkeys and fish. roasted chestnuts, dandeloin salads, and for over eaters, plant sourced purging remedies.There was good will, if slightly suspicious on both sides, with the prudish looking hottie white women sneaking peeks behind those tiny front and back tied on cloth patches.
But while the story is basically as often presented, the invite was unusual. It seems nubile little Hubba Hubba (Trans.-'she with big bumps front and back') was spotted while gathering truffles, by one Jon Langschwanz, son of one of the few German Pioneers, and great, VERY great, ancestor to porn star John Wade.
The boy chased her down, rumor having it that she really didn't try to get away, or to resist, VERY much. Curious girl, that one..
Well, the kids did what some kids will do at dusk on the soft, fragrant undercanopy in the forest. H H was apparently so taken, in so many words, by the lad, that when she returned to camp, she had that look in her eyes from the smoke of a distant fire.She then persuaded her Dad, a chief, to invite the boy and his kin to a big dinner. Just to keep Big Little Jon around, the Great Spirit and Good Lord willing.

Story from Ur-Gov. Wm. Bradford's memoirs. Paraphrased just a bit. Known to all Bay State young boys of past generations. The Braves hate it. While the Squaws know.
