My Dad is still keeping busy, resting as needed, eating well and attending baha'i events whenever he gets a chance.

Here we are basking in the morning sun:




Mom helping Dad get ready to go to a Devotional gathering in our local community:

Below are friends who have come from all over to visit with him:









I posted new pics on our other blog (click on the link on the right: Sasha, Aria and James)

Today we went to our neighbor, Gary's salt-water pool. He has the water set to a comfortable temperature and invited my Dad over to get some exercise.








Sasha didn't turn down the invitation to come along. She was ready before everyone else!

My Dad has been getting up and staying up all morning the past few days. He likes to have little projects to do so he fixes small things, sharpens kitchen knives, sweeps small areas and glues together what Sasha brakes! (only one thing so far). He has visitors every day and my mom is always just a great hostess!

Gilberto and his Dad, Jim, visiting:

I'm in Costa Rica and I'm soo happy to be with my family right now. My Mom is incredible! She has been on top of the medication, has kept my Dad pain-free and by following her intuition has been able to satisfy his every need. He has all these tricks to keep from getting nauseous and one of them is to eat very slowly. He has been able to eat and keep it down for the most part, but isn't eating very much and so has lost a lot of weight. I asked him if he was happy and he said "How could I not be with all of these blessings in my life!" He, and all of us, are so touched by the amount of love and concern being shown.
Here are some pictures I took the first day I got here.




One of the things my Mom has been doing is every night while the rain is pouring down, she lights up a fire and reads to him. Right now they're reading "Caribbean" by James Michener.
Here he is warming up:
