Connection.

Mimi. She connects me to Mom and Dad on the bad days.
Most good days Dad is at his computer and we Skype.
Last week I was out of the house for a few days. When I got home I would check my computer and see that Dad had tried to reach me 3 or 4 times.
Skype is his greatest pleasure these days. It connects him to his children.
I have known this time was imminent since about February.
Dad is getting weaker. The bad episodes are coming closer together.
Mimi feeds me information that keeps me in touch with what is happening.
I need this.
Can't say why.
Just do.
Thankful for Mimi. Today. And always.
