Dad…day 1 in Tucson

I arrived in Tucson yesterday.  Praise God for a last minute flight we found and for a smooth flight.  I got into town around midnight and Erica (my sister) picked me up and took me to dad’s house.  It was just comforting to be in dad’s house.  I made myself comfy and did some of dad’s laundry and cleaned his kitchen (you know I can’t help myself).  I settled in for sleep for a couple hours then headed to the hospital to meet Erica.  I walked into dad’s hospital and his face lit up.  It was wonderful hugging him and loving on him.  He is doing as well as can be expected.  His brain surgery is today at 2:00 and we are very scared but hopefull that maybe, just maybe, they will find it’s not as bad as they think it might be.

 

Erica and I have been busy with phone calls, Skyping with Noah and daddy, laughing with dad, working on the computer to update everyone, and visiting with dad’s wonderful friends!  Here are some pics from our morning.  I told dad I would only put flattering pics up

 

The beautiful mountain view from the hospital parking lot.  I am really enjoying the moutains here in AZ!
