SPRING MAY BE BACK

We have a lot of snow but it should go by the end of March, I hope :).
I had to stop back to have my car checked so I was late in getting in to see Harlan.  He met me at the door of his room and was glad to see me.  He was so tired, after his meds he took a nap.  Ellie one of the nurses told me she gave him cereal last night, I think he gets a late night snack every night as he needs all the nourishment they can get down him.  When I see him walk down the hall I see this little old man not capable of doing much and I feel so sad, I know if he were in his right mind he would not want to be this way, he can't do much for himself, he used to be so active. If something needed to be done he did it and always completed everything he ever started and now he is not even capable of shaving himself.  When I leave he always holds my coat so I can put it on, sometimes upside down or backwards but he always tries, he opens the door for me when we go for a treat, not the car door but doors to buildings.  He is aways considerate of me.
Today was a good day a very special day, a day with Harlan....Fran
