Flying High!

While the Blue Angels flew by outside, we were soaring a bit on our own!

Dad's fever was gone for most of the day. Trish got to enjoy some good awake time with him, along with TL and her friend Chris. Dad sat in his chair for a while and even had a few bites of corn chowder (TL's friend Chris almost beat him to it, but was too slow).

With a fresh haircut & shave, he looked great! Just in time for a few visitors. Friends Doyle & Nancy came by with Paul from PFBC for a bit, and were joined by John from Lakewood who stopped by as well. Dad was a little too tuckered out (that's for you Paul) for much conversation, but did give some good nods & uh-huhs instead.

Later, Grandson Elijah & I spent a quiet, restful evening with him as his fever crept back. He was still sleeping comfortably as we left for the night, prayerful that the antibiotics would continue to work on the infection & fever!

Praise God for even the smallest of victories!
