Today it was a beautiful 88 degrees outside. So when I got to the Veterans Home I Decided to take Dad outside . We sat for a while just enjoying the birds chirping and the cool shade with the gentile breeze. The grounds at the Veterans Home are Beautiful.

Dad sure loves it when we go outside. After being outside for a little while Dad all of the sudden went ouch and tightly closed his eyes. I asked him if he hurt somewhere and he said yes. so I started the guessing game as to what hurt. then he rubbed his chest right at the sternum and I asked him if that is where it hurt he said yes. about 30 seconds later it stopped hurting. not long enough for me to get him to a nurse. any ways he seemed tired but ok after wards. I took him to get lunch in the little coffee shop they have there he lived it and ate every bite as well as drank a whole root beer by himself. this chest pain happened again 2 more times while we were eating but did not seem to last but 10-15 seconds.

After we ate Nichole and Peter came to show Dad his Newest Great Grand Son Beck. I think they look alike.



He enjoyed seeing him and holding him. When back messed in his diaper I asked Dad if he wanted to change him he just laughed.

Before I left his chest thing happened once more. I let the nurses know and I have called Hospice to make them aware of it. I told them to keep him out of pain.
I do not know what will happen and when but I do know that dad told me Mom has been visiting him. asking him to go with her. he told me this today.
I love you all and hope all is well with you. Jo Ellen
