Post #2 ... Bill's Support Staff

These past days have been very difficult for Bill.  He's not felt well, he's extremely tired, the ER visit wasn't pleasant, radiation, hydration, tube feeding, etc., etc., etc.  Makes for a very discouraged man.

I wasn't sure how Jessie was going to handle seeing a tube coming out from Bill's stomach and seeing us put stuff in it. She freaks out when anyone has a band aid on them.  However, she has done very well.  At first she really didn't know what to make of it, but then she just wanted to be there each time he "eats".  

Tonight Bill was very tired and not feeling well.  While I cleaned up our dinner dishes, Jon gave Bill "dinner".  As you can see, Jessie was Bill's support staff.  He needed a shoulder to lean on - she gave it to him.  She had her arm around his neck the entire time and kept patting his head.  This was so very special.  Jess has alot of compassion, and she loves her daddy very much!  We are blessed to have caring children.  Thank you, Jesus!
