The photo above should make the choice easier,

so which one do you think is Sam now?

This was one of the photos I mentioned I took with me to the hospital. This was the one with the deep, positive impact on dad and his sisters (so they said). I'm glad I took it there.

Please cope with my "father" obsession these days. I know I will have nothing much to offer or talk about but dad and things connected to him. I know this is one of the ways (after prayers and resorting to God) that will help me cope with what I have at hand. I do know other people are suffering worse conditions and I thank God for every thing we are able to do for Sam.

Dad's condition is much better than many others. And we are lucky to be able to handle many things other people cannot for many reasons. That alone is a blessing.

I still pray for others. I still did not and will not forget the people suffering out there. I feel thankful to God for granting us so many blessings that those poor people don't even have access to, not even with money! But it is my weakness, I am aware of it, and posting about it, is one of the ways I feel is helping me to maintain my steadiness. Do not underestimate what you people are doing for me. It means a great deal for me and your prayers are very important for Dad, me, my sisters, aunts and step mom.

You lovely hearts have been and still are a great source of support. I must admit, reading your comments has helped and still does a great deal.

Your support means so much to me and I thank all of u, and will continue to thank you each time I read any of your comments. I appreciate them more than any of you can imagine.
