He's not seeing anymore ghost people, cats, dogs or babies -- whew!

Good morning friends. Just dropping in with an update -- your prayers are working . He is back at his assisted living apartment and is no longer hallucinating. He is still quite ill, but it's such a relief to see him without the wild look in his eyes.

I hope that never happens again. He has some serious health issues that are here to stay, but I hope he regains enough health so he can hang with his new friends at his new home. You know how some places for older people make you never want to get old -- this place I could do (can I move in tomorrow?). I hope I can afford a nice place like this one, the staff is exceptional and the people who live there are so happy and fun to be around. Definitely not one of those waiting to die type places.

Cute side story -- this one lady made my day. I was sitting next to her in a common area and we were conversing about my grandpa, about hair (bangs), hats, exercise and all around general girl chat stuff. Out of the blue she patted me on the back and then lay her head on my shoulder -- it was so fricken sweet and just what I needed, I almost cried. It also made me miss my grandma, because her mannerisms were so similar. Oh! But that wasn't even the make my day part.

The make my day part was when she told me I had a nice shape and was very nicely proportioned. Right there is why I love old people -- because they say shit like that -- "nice proportions" -- who says that? Old folk. And I've been feeling very "big boned" as of late, so of course I told her she was my new best friend for saying such nice things aloud (she also assumed I exercise regularly -- bless her ).

Thank you buddies so much for your prayers they truly make a difference.
