Yes, aside from his ability to commit in a romantic relationship :laugh: (which isn't my business), he really has no flaws. I am always thankful for how well we get along and how easygoing he is.

A scare today. Got a call from Mom’s nurse saying, “She’s breathing sporadically but she’s still warm.” Arrived and Mom was just a little less responsive than yesterday. She would take 4 breaths and then no breath for 30 seconds. She aroused herself and took some of the thickened water, said it was very good. I applied lip balm and read to her many parables of Jesus. No lunch whatsoever. I stayed for several hours and only left after she fell feast asleep and was breathing normally. It’s hard for me to judge but the end might be near.

My God, what an awful thing to say! Who are these guys?
Why didn't she just come right out and say it, "She's not dead yet"?

Which reminds me of that Monty Python sketch that it would be tasteless to quote here.
I'm sorry, Lee, that must have been scary. "She's still warm"?? Not exactly the best bedside manner.
Keep us posted. {{{{{ Lee }}}}}

(((Lee))) I'm sorry to hear your mom's state is worsening.
