Henry update

There are other things I need to talk about, but this gets priority.  On our way out Henry’s son told us that he isn’t doing well.  Something happened, perhaps a stroke, and now he has no brain function.  They expect him to pass on in a few days.  So now the three of them are going through his cell phone and address book to let people know.  Carrie was thinking and told them to contact the VA because they’ll be able to help guide them through this process.

I don’t know if they’ll want to try to get him into some dress blues.  If so I want to go to Banana Bay Trading Company to help with that.  I have a lot of questions right now, but I’ll wait to ask because they probably don’t have answers anyway.  Henry has the sweetest cat that I hope one of them takes with them.  We’d take her but we already have 2 and can’t take more.  But she’s so sweet.

I’m sad.  I mean, it’s ok, but it’s still sad.  But it’s life.  I’m glad we didn’t move at the end of our lease now because we wouldn’t have known about this and met his kids.  Now we can be involved in whatever way they need us to be, and hopefully get to go to his funeral.

Though I suppose there’s still a slim chance of recovery.
