Tuesday April 6th

Dave continues to go to school, but I honestly don't know where he gets the strength. He is absolutely wiped out when he gets home.....all he does is sleep. I am not sure how much longer he can continue....getting up at 5:00 in the morning is starting to wear on me too. The kids just mean so much to him....I hope they know how much he cares about each of them.
His appetite is dwindling, I can hardly get him to eat. He is not nauseous, he is just not hungry. I fix him a very fattening protein milkshake every day for lunch, so I know he is getting at least some nutrients. Chris and I have noticed him getting visably weaker and today his color was not very good. His feet and ankles are still swollen. Cayte got him TED knee length stockings from the hospital, but they have not really made much difference.
As usual he does not complain. We notice him forgetting and not processing conversations as he once did. His speech has gotten slower...at times he is a bit snappy with us. I just cannot imagine what goes thru his mind......we just go on loving him and giving thanks for each and every day! Chris brings his dog over each day and she stays with us when he goes to work..Morgan will not leave Dave's side. As I write this she is snuggled up in bed with Dave, and I guarentee she will not be happy to go home!
As I have often said..thank you so much for your support.....
Blessings to all....
