Recently Kate has been talking about going to the beach. She has been slowly going downhill and not showing any progress at all. I think that this is all hitting us pretty hard. Dad thought it would be a good idea to head out that way for an afternoon and really do something that would make her happy. The doctor said it was fine, so we discharged Kate from the hospital, went home and hopped in the car. Of course, my stubborn mom was hesitant about taking Kate to the beach, but what more damage can be done to her? This is really what Kate wants. So mom finally agrees to going with us.
This has been the best time that I have ever spent with my family, in a long time. It was so nice to play in the sand, and run through the water. Kate didn’t do much of anything, but just the smile on her face made it all worth it. This was her one thing to do, before she passed. And I think you can tell by looking at her, she knows the day is creeping up sooner than we planned. I am so glad I have the family I have. We all have our tough times, but when we are all together it is just that much more fun. I can’t describe how we all are happy when we are on the beach with no worries. Nobody is coming in to bug us, nobody is calling, and it is just us and the ocean. How much better can this be?
