Dave,
Glad to hear your pop's hanging in there.  I have a "praise". After fourteen months of unemployment I've accepted an offer from Lancaster Labs.  They took over the analytical testing of the company I've been a manager at for 31 years.  I'll actually be coming to your "neck of the woods" for a few days in a week or so.  Bear in mind that this has happened two weeks before my salary continuation runs out.  God really does work in mysterious ways,  never late, but rarely early.  My weakness, should have trusted more...worried less!

Rich,

You sure will be in my "neck of the woods" when in Leola!

While you're here, if you get a layover period, be sure to call! I'll PM you some phone #'s.

Be grand to hook up with someone from outside the area.

Look for my PM.

Back at ya, Rich!  :)

HOpe we can make it work while you're here.

To All,

Thanks for the continued prayers. Dad is back sleeping most of the time. His ole body is just wore out I guess... I sat by his bed tonite for 35 minutes and he actually woke up and asked how long I was there... Then we watched some TV a while, and I had to leave... he thanked me in a way that was not quite my Dad, but touched me deeply.

he's never been a real emotive guy, but this was from down deep inside... makes me wonder. Gave him a big kiss and hug and put on a ball game before I left.

Weren't the Phillies, but he tolerates others during travel days!  :)

Dave,
Pulling for you and your father. I have walked the same trail.
Maybe I'll see you at Denton.

Sent you a PM, Jed, (course, think I typed "Ed") Doh   "[dntthnk]"  

Thanks for the prayers, Jed and all.

Dad actually was pretty alert and awake last evening when I visited. That is a first for a while. Goes day-by-day.

His tired, 89 yr old body is about wore out, but he keeps on fighting for one more Phillies game on TV!  :)

Thank you all!

Doc I pray that the Lord will sustain you and your dad thru this and strengthen you both with His peace and rest.
