help look for victims of that terrible day. He spent two weeks there

I forgot to mention his two sisters up in the first paragraph. He

also received a Who's Who recognition in 2002 in Nursing for his work

in New York. His feeding pump is right here all charged up and ready

to go tonight is out movie night, he often fell asleep and I just

covered him up and let him sleep until the dog woke him. Even our dog

don't know what is going on.

He wanted me to take the kids out of here this State and City are

falling apart. I will give it a while and maybe move out to Minnesota

like we wanted to. He won't miss his beloved Red Sox, Patriots, Celtics,

I have to go I 'm calling the hospital to come get this pump out of

here it is making me sad. I might go to work tomorrow, I work with

children whom need help either through abuse or lack of everything. It

will keep my mind busy. My sister can watch the kids. I'm rambling

gotta go
