Hello Dear Family and Friends,
I hope all is well with you and will continue.
All is not well with us, and I hope it will not continue; however, we know better. Ruth’s alzheimer’s is much worse; she still has a sense of humor and holds a fair conversation, but remembers nothing. She still knows me and the children. However, upon our departure, it is like we have never visited her. She is in a rest home now to stay. I miss her so!
For me, I am feeling fine most of the time. I’m being seen once a year to check on a bladder cancer and two skin cancers. Compared to other couples I have heard about, this is minor.
I am sorry not to be in touch all year like some others have with us - and we enjoy. I would like to be more in touch, but don’t count on it. Ruth was always the letter writer. I am more likely to pick up the telephone, - so maybe!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
With Love and Best Wishes,
Wally and Ruth
