Spending Time With Lolo

I'm at my mother's house helping take care of my grandfather while my parents are out.  He arrived here on Monday and it's been pretty tough on her.  My uncles and cousins brought over a hospital bed earlier this week, so it's a little easier.  He can't walk anymore and spends most of his time sleeping.  It's hard to see him so frail.  At this point, we're just trying to make him as comfortable as possible.

I've been going through his journal today and it's reassuring to hear his voice from the pages.  It reminds me of how he used to be when I was young.  I found an entry in his journal that seems appropriate for these times.  I'll try to post it right after this.
