Larry has, once again, baffled his doctor and nurses. We were told on Saturday morning that in just a day or two and he would be gone. However, he had a very interactive day on Saturday, talking and making a few jokes. It was almost like the old Larry was back, even for a brief time. I'm sure it spent his energy as he spent most of Sunday sleeping and today is much the same. We've been told that it is common for cancer patients to sometimes rally at the end, which may very well be what he has done. His vital signs took a negative turn last evening, but improved a bit during the night and remain fairly stable. It is amazing to me that a body so ravaged with this horrible disease can still be so strong and put up such a fight to live.

The decision was made just a few minutes ago to move him to Hospice Home in High Point. This move is scheduled for tomorrow morning and I believe Larry will be much more comfortable. The rooms are much the same as what we have now, except that he will be on the ground floor with access to a courtyard outside his room. He asked us yesterday if he could just look out a window so we moved his bed for him to see outside. It was a very nice day so we were able to open the window, too, and he commented on the birds singing. I believe he will find this move especially comforting since he will be able to not only see outside, but they are willing to move his bed outside for a short while.

Will update more following his move tomorrow.

Much love,

Terri and family
