Not much news today

Not much to report today. Dad is sleeping more and more. He was still in bed when I saw him around lunch time today. I took him an application for an absentee ballot so he can vote in the upcoming election. He is very weak and now requires a lot more help getting in and out of bed. Mom can't do it without help. Jeff got a new John Deere bailer today so he drove that by dad's window so he could see it. That was the excitement for the day. Oh, and he'll get a sponge bath today from the home health nurse.
Chad, family and Bonnie will be out to visit and make dinner for mom tonight.

It's very sad to see him in such tough shape. He is so thin and weak. Not at all the father that I am used to seeing. He keeps asking us all to pray for him to go. He is ready and sure doesn't like the way things are now.

Ben and I will be back down on Saturday afternoon to visit, so if anyone of the cousins are interested in coming too, that would be great.
