Update
Just a quick update to let folks know how Eric is doing. Mom, brother Bil and I (big sis) arrived last night. Over the weekend, Eric was able to "virtually" participate with the rest of the family in Nicolas's coming of age ceremony and enjoy a nice dinner with friends. On Monday, he stopped taking steroids. When we arrived Monday night, we brought his favorite Michigan meal (a "make it larger" Olga sandwich) and a piece of homemade chocolate cake. He devoured these and we talked and hugged and he went to sleep. Today he has slept all day--rousing slightly to take some meds, but not eating or doing anything else. He seems very relaxed and peaceful and does not seem to be in any pain.

So glad to hear Eric doesn't seem to be in pain, and that he seems relaxed and peaceful. It's wonderful that he has been able to see and enjoy so much family recently. I hope you have some more quality time together. Sending you all love and hugs and wishes for comfort.
ReplyDeleteRelaxed, peaceful, not in pain. Looking for the blessing in this process and that's the only one I can find. Thankful for small mercies to make this road easier on him and all of you.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all - you are a truly amazing family and the love you share for one another is comforting to us all who can not be there for Eric or you. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers...
