Dad was ok today. He just looked soooo tired. Cary and I talked with him, and Cary thought he was so much better than the last time she saw him. He didn't mumble or say anything crazy. But he just looked like he could barely hold his eyes open. He said Mom keeps him awake. He's misplaced his watch and Nikki said they're looking for it. Anyway, I went in to check on Mom, and I lost it. Her shirt was so dirty, and her linens looked filthy and worn out. It was the first time I thought this is unacceptable and she's going home with me! Nikki walked in, and I told her, and she said I was right, and they should have changed her shirt. She told me about them not being able to use bleach, but she agreed with me about the linens, and when they get to looking that bad, they should be trashed. I'm telling you, it was so pitiful. That's our Mom and it was just so sad. I'm tearing up thinking about it. Jeanie's right, we've got to stand up for them. I was convicted again today that I've got to go over there more often. My life is so hectic right now, but so is everyone else's but they need us to check on them. I know there is nothing else we can do right now, but it just hurts so much. Dad is so precious and always acts like he doesn't want me to leave. Pat is right, and that it has to be so hard on him, but I know he would not want to leave Mom. We just have to keep them in our prayers. I hope when we're not around that they are caring for them like we think and hope they are. Lord help us!!!
