Wow how time flies.
Life here has been
crazy we closed our Pizza place in Carthage and are opening in Nauvoo. so life has been crazy need less to say.Dad is doing ok for the stage of Alzheimer's he is in. He continues to lose a pound here and there and then gain one or two here
and there. but mostly he continues to loose. he 
talks less and less smiles once in a while. He 
is eating a little better but is chocking on his liquids most of the time now. This is because he is forgetting how to swallow. I tell him how much each of you love him every time I see him. I also tell him thank you for being such a good Dad. He smiled this last time and said thank you. He is still on Hospice car I am so grateful for this it means he gets more baths every week and he has lots of visitors.Here are some pictures from the past few months of Dad as well as others. There are a few before and after shots of his hair cut.
There is a country song called Daddy's hands that I think of often
part of the chorus goes "Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was crying. Daddy's hand were hard as steal when I've done wrong. Daddy's hands weren't always gentile but I've come to understand there was always Love in Daddy's hands."
I hope all is well with all of you Love you all Jo Ellen

it is nice when he has good days like these in the pictures. I don't like posting the ones from bad days they are so sad. sorry I had a video but it would not upload. maybe it is to big who knows.
Thank you for your continued efforts in behalf of all of the children in making sure Dad is well taken care of. I love and miss him so much even though I realize that he would not know me! I really appreciate the pictures. They mean more to me than you could ever know.
I love you!
