Autumn Leaves had a Thanksgiving Dinner last night and the place was full to the max. Miss Jan started the day being just fantastic, and seemed ready for a party. We had a great meal with Craig and Carrie plus the cutties grandsons a person could have. It was one of those magical days where the window was about 3/4 open for Jan. She was alert, talking, answering, laughing, very steady on her feet. I took her helmet off as I walked with her most of the time. Everyone including visitors who know Jan were amazed at her. The staff couldn't stay away from her. She ate all of her food and was lifting her head pretty well. I think God must give us these moments as a way for us to remember what she was like before this disease attacked her. Thank you Lord!
Today, I was there for lunch and she was still in good spirits. She was tired but was having another day. We will take the good days and remember them when we have the bad days, and it will help us get through those hard times.
Jan and I are about to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. I don't know what I'm going to do, but we will do all we can to make it special.
We have some pictures of yesterday and I will get them up tomorrow maybe.
