Today Bill was awake off and on this afternoon, dozing intermittently.  Christine left this afternoon and we will greatly miss her companionship during the long nighttime hours.  Little Aiden William came to visit today and Bill had a smile for him.  Bill decided he would like to be called Aiden, so we joked about giving Bill an unofficial middle name since he does not have one.   And we think that William Aiden sounds wonderful.  Bill still seems to come up with great "one liners" like, "What's the scripture for today?"  and  when someone offered juice, he replied "Ice has half the calories."   As we have been reading the emails sent to us through the pbvfamily@gmail.com address, we have been amazed at the things you remember about Bill.  Thanks so much for sharing your memories with Bill and our family.   He enjoys hearing them as do we.

I did not feel well today, so am spending the night at home while Peter and Ben watch over their Dad.  Sometimes Bill needs a drink or an ice cube after a bought of hiccups or a battle with nausea.  These continue to be a source of distress.
