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:
