It's been a week since the burial and things around here are beginning to settle down. Dad is doing a bit better, but his mental condition is still a bit unstable at times. I would estimate that he is mostly lucid 80% of the time and 20% of the time he is confused. Actually, it's more like 40% lucid, 10% confused, and 50% asleep. He has been sleeping a lot. Also, he has been having very painful back/neck muscle spasms.
His main gripe (other than the pain) is the quality of the food at the nursing home. This morning Monica, our eldest (23), got up fairly early and she made muffins. I plan n taking him a couple of blueberry muffins shortly after they come out of the oven. Hopefully he will eat these. I will admit that Monica had a bit of an ulterior motive. Her boyfriend flies into IAH around lunchtime today and she is driving down to pick him up. She wanted some food for the road. He will be in town for about 2 weeks on furlough from the marines.
