Day 17 - Monday, January 17, 2011 - My mom called me this afternoon to tell me that the hospice nurse said that my dad only had two hours to two days. After packing an overnight bag and collecting all of the kids from three different schools and driving for what seemed like days, I arrived at their house about 15 minutes after he passed away. These beautiful flowers were blooming at his bedside as we all said our goodbyes, shed our tears, and sang one of his favorite hymns, It Is Well With My Soul.
