This is still his sister here... I am sure Kary will be writing his thoughts soon. Today was when we were supposed to have been away all weekend at a retreat house for a family reunion, but it was changed this week so we could be with Kary. Almost everyone was able to make it today with the exception of Jocelyn, Angela and Flo ( in Denmark) and then Dana ( in NY-- making movies:) ) It was great getting all of us together again. We took turns going in and visiting with Kary as he does better when he can have fewer people and not so much noise going on. He was able to take time and really talk with everyone. I heard many different people say that they felt so much better after seeing him and talking with him. The peace and faith he has are contagious! Kary is very happy to report that his ascites was sooooo much better today-- what a relief and this brings much more comfort for him. I saw him drinking and eating at different times today and so that is great too. My brother Nathan wrote a song for Kary after hearing him talking about his "party" with God that has continued on. It was about the mystery of how during such hard times you can still laugh. It is almost a holy laughter-- Kary is experiencing so much more than most will ever get to.
