Day 32, Evening

Hannah is doing fine. She's essentially getting all of her nutrition from milk now, and the pressure settings on the ventilator have been reduced a bit more (to let her lungs do more of the work and exercise them).

Dad's funeral today was the perfect sendoff for a great and generous man. He attracted good people, so this gathering of his friends and family was a happy celebration of his life among a fine group of folks. The weather was clear, cool, and sunny, the service very fitting. A VFW honor guard fired a salute, played taps, and presented a flag to Mom for Dad's Army and Air Force service. The opportunity to catch up with all the people whose lives intersected with Dad's but rarely with each other's, made the day more joyful than sad. And we all know that's exactly what Dad would have wanted. Dad's obituary can be found here and the guestbook here.
