Hi everyone.
Well, Gary does not want to do the diet we were going to try. He feels so crappy most of the time and it is hard enough to get him to eat "normal" food. It is just too much of a struggle to keep up with this new lifestyle. We are still going to make some changes with our food. We will have no more soda and cut back on sugar and processed foods. We will limit our red meat and cut back on the carbs. Gary and I will still be taking the supplements and I will try to stick to the more stringent diet.
Gary and I have had many conversations about him dying lately. My head hurts and I am emotionally exhausted from talking about all of this and thinking about it constantly. We are both scared and worried and nervous and more than sad could ever be. So much to talk about (you can only imagine) and we are unsure as to how much time we have left together.
Today we had an amazing surprise! Liz and all of the wonderful people she works with (Along with Patrick - the professional light installer/electrician) came to our house and were there ALL afternoon hanging lights all over the outside of our house! What an awesome gift to our family! We were amazed that people that do not even know us came to bring special holiday cheer to us. WOW. The house looks great and if anyone needs to hire someone to do their lights Patrick and his company were excellent and nice and helpful and they did a great job!!
Gary is going to try and go to our Thanksgiving service tomorrow morning. It would be great to have him there with us!
Home Group is coming tomorrow night and the kids had a very busy weekend!
Off to bed cause I am a sleepy head! Pray that Gary can get some rest tonight!
Love and Warm Hugs,
L

Hello...my heart hurts for you knowing the decisions you are faced with and knowing that your mind, heart, and shoulders must be so heavy right now. I am here to help in any way that I can, including coming to sit with Gary so that you can get caught up on some much needed zzz's! If you would like help planning an early Christmas celebration, we would love to make that happen for you, Gary, and the boys! Many hugs are coming to you today...
