Love and Support

Dad and Uncle Richard's Hands
Originally uploaded by Pictures by Ann

I took my dad to Colorado to see his brother who is very sick. Dad and Uncle Richard spent some time sitting on the couch today.

My dad was comforting Uncle Richard and listening to him describe his pain (he has diverticulitus). This is above and beyond having Alzheimer's Disease (which both Uncle Richard AND my dad have).

Uncle Richard's hand is on the top, my dad's hand is on the bottom.

This is one my favorite pictures from the trip because it shows the true purpose of the trip: love and support.
