Sleep deprivation...
I am into day 6 of my involuntary sleep deprivation experiment. It has been quite the challenge for me to keep my eyes open for so long but I have to admit that I do catch the occasional hour here and there. I suppose that is what is keeping me somewhat sane. As if I was ever 100% sane to begin with but thats another story. In any case, I highly recommend the non-sleep thing. You will be amazed at the rainbow of colors you see when your brain is trying to shut down without permission!
Toni and Eddie just left. They stopped by for some coffee and to hang out with mom and dad for a while. It was real nice to see them and I know it makes dad happy. They will be back next week and they said they plan on spending the whole day so that mom, dad, Toni and Eddie can play a few hands of penoccle. Sounds like a plan to me :)
The nurse will be here in a few minutes. Dad is doing much better than he was a few nights ago thank God. His spirits are up and he was out of bed and in the kitchen this morning before I even got up. I gave him a nice shave and he is ready for his close-ups now :) Lets hope this lasts for a while.
Cindy is still in the hospital. I hope she comes home soon. She seems to be doing well with the treatments from what I can gather. I know she would like to come home asap to spend time with Melissa and just be out of the city. When she comes home, I think I am going to treat the entire Levine clan to Chinese food. I know Cindy loves that and I think it will bring a smile to her face. It seems that I make her laugh. Allot. I don't know what it is... I guess I'm just a funny guy. Yes, funny like a clown... to amuse you :)
One more thing before I go. Sherry. I have to say that she is something else. Not only is she going through all the pain and fear as everyone else, but at the same time she is working, going to school, taking care of things at home like cooking and cleaning, watching after Melissa, homework, bills, acting as an operator with all the calls that pour into the house... the list goes on and on. I don't think she realizes how strong she really is. She always has time to listen to me and make me smile and I am honored to be able to call her my best friend. There is nothing I wouldn't do for her. Thank you for being here, sweet. Times are tough but we will be OK. Melissa has a fantastic roll model in you. Stay strong and I will always be your "rock"
Have a great day, everyone :)
