Got another call from mom last night around 9:30pm shot over to their house. Pop wasn't very alert and breathing continues to slow. Hospice nurse came by around about 11:30pm last night to check him out. She says that his lungs are clear but his heart is working way too hard. She also gave us some signs of the end is near so we will know what to expect what that time comes.
Once our minds were temporary put at ease and the nurse had left, it was time to tell funny stories...and with my family there are plenty is anyone needs to borrow some. By this time the time was pushing 3:00am when mom told the funniest story I have ever heard in my life. It was about my aunt cooked for my uncle for the first time. He tells the story about she made him fried chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy. He said the gravy was thick and the potatoes were runny. He piled up the gravy on his plate, made a little pond in the middle and then pored the mashed potatoes into the gravy pond he just created.
I share this story because it is a great memory and memories will stay with you for all your life. Make memories with your loved ones as you never know when that is all you will have of them. I know when my father goes to meet our Lord, my family will have a ton of memories so share and rejoice his life. It is going to be a said but happy day as I know my pop will be going to heaven. I love you pop.
But may the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful. Psalm 68:3
