Well, Gary did a great job talking in church yesterday. He faced a full house and many of our friends and family were there. It was emotional for all of us and Zach really has had a rough go of it. All to be expected. We are so amazingly grateful for all of you! What would we do without you?
Every night we have had a full house of people. Dinner, drinks, friends, great conversation, bad jokes, laughter, football and so much more! We both just love it!!! My Dad left today and I am sure he was very sad to go. He will come back for the Memorial Service.
We are having problems with our insurance - surprise surprise! They do not want to cover Hospice for Gary given his age. He is too young to receive full benefits. They have given us a $5,000.00 cap which will only take us about 10 days. We are going to need to re-evaluate to see what course we need to take. We might have to go off of Hospice and have Dr. Barth prescribe the drugs needed to get Gary completely out of pain and comfortable. I am a little scared to do this by myself but we do have many RN friends who I am sure could help me. I will keep you posted.
The boys are back to school and I think we are going to take them out tomorrow to have a quiet family day. We will rent some movies and just hang out together. Gary does not have much more time (unless he totally shocks us and I will not put that past him)!
Hobie is still in bed as is Gary. I guess I will get myself dressed and ready for the day!
Love and Hugs,
Lisa

Our family owes you a huge thank you for allowing us to share in this entire last week with you, your boys, and Gary. Through the laughter, the tears, the bad jokes, the many friends and family we've gotten to meet and spend time with, the many drinks, and the tons of food we have all consumed right along with Gary, my family will carry these moments forever....thank you for being the wonderful person you are!
XoXo,
Michele, Steve, Hailey & Jake
