Susan here to update you on Kelley

Susan here to update you on Kelley.  The past week has been most difficult and he barely logs onto the computer, let alone post.  The morphine keeps him satisfactorily pain free, but also causes him to sleep most the day.  I know his main concern is getting me situated the best he can.  It's keeping him here, I know.  We have Hospice coming once a week now to check in on him and they have been very helpful to us both.  Kelley is still ambulatory, using his walker to get around.  It sat in the closet for nearly 18 months and we nearly gave it away...

We both of us certainly missed our trip out West, but the snows are now there. Our window of time closed.  Kelley is in no condition to drive, let alone comfortably sit in the passenger seat.  But, our computer desktops are a slideshow of all the wonderful places we have been, through all the seasons of our life together.  Forty years is a long time to live with a person.  I cannot remember a time when there was not Kelley in my life.  He is amazingly strong willed and it got him through many trying times.  Unfortunately, this was not one of them.   We had dreams fulfilled, but there were more.....
