Dad

My father is now requiring regular doses of morphine, mostly to ease his breathing. The doses are not large ones, but the hospice nurse instructed that they come at set intervals rather than as needed. Whether from the morphine or his heart disease, Dad is now sleeping round the clock, and I've been able to talk with him only once in the last ten days.

But this morning my sister telephoned that Dad was awake, and we talked briefly, I sang to him, and we prayed. What a blessing!
