I visited my dad yesterday. He’s lost a lot of hair, but still has some on the top of his head, so it doesn’t look terrible. And his coloring is pretty good too.
His eyes look so tired and he did nod-off a little bit, and kept saying he was tired. He has a cold with chest congestion, so that’s not helping at all.
The sores in his mouth and throat, from chemo or radiation, make it painful to eat, so he just had two bites of the sandwich that my sister was feeding him. He’s very thin and shuffles to walk.
He didn’t know who I was, but he was pleasant and polite to me. I told him about my son, whom he helped to raise. They were extremely close. He struggled to understand what I was saying, but then told me to
“Give him my love”.
All in all, I’m glad I visited him.
Thank you to everyone here who encouraged me.
