Thanks for your prayers. We too are praying for a peaceful passing. We're at that awkward point between not wanting to lose him and wondering why he's lingering.

A blast from the past:

Boromir in the book was a bit scary, because we saw mostly through Frodo's eyes, and Frodo was scared of him. The camera, being less discriminating, gave us a more balanced view of the noble Gondorian. - JenB

But Boromir's the kind of guy I wouldn't mind have protecting me. I'd feel safe. - JenB

Now I don't want to hear anymore of that "Men are weak" stuff. ;^)

I know what you mean. We've been there a couple of times with Mama. She's actually doing pretty well in the nursing home. She was always a social creature (now you know where I get it from!), but being aware that she had Alzheimer's and not wanting to sound 'out of it' in a group had kept her in her house for the most part for the last 4 yrs. Now, her mental state is to the point where she doesn't have that idea of disease anymore so she's gone back to her chatty self, and having all those other old ladies and men to chat with in the nursing home has perked her up quite a bit! But she still has the underlying heart and kidney problems, so it is just wait and see.
