Sunday Updates

 

Byron had a rough night.  He now has sustained hiccups for long periods of time.  Of course, if he is hiccupping all night he is not getting good sleep.   We are working to control the hiccups with meds, but the trick is when and how much of the meds to administer.  Hopefully, today and tonight will go smoother.  On the brighter side, he was up at 7:30 this morning and had a good sized bowl of yogurt with fruit and granola and is tucked in for a morning nap.   He is looking forward to a Zoom call with all his family in California later this afternoon. 

Prayer request: Continued success with him eating nutritious food, drinking lots of fluids and getting good rest. Pray the hiccups stop!

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me...

  It is with a broken heart I share with you that Byron passed away last evening about 8:45 pm.   His last day was rough on him but when he passed, he was so peaceful.  During the day, we were all with him, his kids, his grand kids, his brothers, some cousins.  We all got to say goodbye and for that we will all be forever grateful.  He was surrounded with love and bathed in prayer.   The support our family has received, the prayers, the outpouring of love and caring and sharing of memories means so much to each and every one of us. Back in December , Byron sent me an email and attached this poem with the instructions to share it with his kids and grand kids at his passing.  I did that task this morning, but the poem was so beautiful and appropriate, I am sharing it with you all.  I have to believe, even back in December, God was not only preparing Byron, but also helping Byron to prepare us...
