Dad has been mostly unresponsive today, much the same as yesterday. He’ll wake up every once in a while and talk for a couple of sentences and then drift back to sleep. The physical therapist came by a couple of times but wasn’t able to get dad to respond.

Meanwhile, I’ve been thinking a lot about my uncle Delon who died a year ago. Last February we drove down to Las Cruces, NM for his funeral. The youngest child was the first to go and now the oldest is probably next.

This afternoon Delon’s daughter (and my cousin) Cheryl delivered a lovely baby daughter. Mother, daughter, husband Sean, and their boys are all doing well. Congrats, Sean and Cheryl!
