Slept until noon. Spent time with Kashi. Slept again from 2:00 PM until 8:30 PM. Thinking of another nap.

Kashi wagged his tail this afternoon. Still not eating much beside a bite or two here or there.

Cousin D called. My dear Uncle D is slipping away. D, too, is tired and heart sore, yet he listened to me cry for a long while last night. For a guy, he can really rise to the occasion.

He has been magnificent through his father's Long Goodbye. No father could ask for a better son. It is marvelous--truly so--that he has been able to nurture Uncle D through this difficult time. Through this journey, Cousin D has grown into an even more lovely, loving man--a privilege to watch.
