Here I am back ... unfortunately the situation of my father has kept me far away from the blogosphere in recent days. Babbo
now is in the hospital during the last 5 days, your liver stopped producing proteins that has caused unbearable pain and extreme swelling in the body preventing him from walking or moving. What to say, see it in suffering, a product of morphine could hardly speak, with that look that only transmitting pain and asked for help, see my Babbo tired and almost unrecognizable, broke my heart ... decisions nature are often painful how someone wisely told me, and at this point, scientifically aware that the prognosis is not encouraging, give me hope to God and His will be done.
Nothing like more they return to enjoy a Sunday lunch with him, how we have done in these four years, ever hear him say it, because he always has something to say, no matter the subject ... to see re-build your beautiful and unique Christmas crib with the child's vitality and look that has always characterized, to listen tirelessly insisting that I try and eat what he told me, to see repeated in secret a piece of cake or sweet the occasion to see what was and was trying to speak English, according to a book he had bought especially to communicate with my family .... Babbo, "Ti voglio bene both" (I love you) were my words before radiation treatment, I pounced on him trying to stop time for fear of what might come and he hugged me tightly saying that know ...
You always hear "enjoy every moment as if it were your last" but we're very busy with our lives and we still give us life almost forever those moments and people we love, now I just think that would give anything to enjoy a simple lunch with Babbo ... and in this hope I will stay until you can ...

Finally I am back ... unfortunately the current situation with my father-in-law has kept me far away from the blogsphere lately.
Babbo is now at the hospital, during the last 5 days, his liver stopped producing proteins which has caused an unbearable pain and extreme swelling of the body which is preventing him from walking or moving. What can I say, seeing him in suffering, an as a result of the morphine he was hardly able to speak, with that look that was only transmitting pain and asking for help, seeing my Babbo tired and almost unrecognizable, broke my heart ... the decisions of nature are painful as someone wisely told me, and at this point, scientifically aware that the prognosis is not encouraging, I give my hope to God and ask him that His will be done.
I would do anything to enjoy again a Sunday lunch with him, how we have done in the last four years, to listen his point of view, because he always had something to say, no matter the subject ... to see him again building his beautiful and unique Christmas crib with the vitality and his child’s look that has always characterized himself, to listen him tirelessly insisting that I try and eat what he told me, to see him while nobody was watching cutting a second piece of cake or sweet, to see him how he tried to speak English, following a book that he had bought especially to communicate with my family .... Babbo, “Ti voglio bene” (I love you) were my words before starting radiation treatment, I pounced on him trying to stop time feeling the fear of what might come and he hugged me tightly saying he knew it...
You always hear "enjoy every moment as if it were your last" but we're very busy with our lives and we think that life will give us those moments and people we love forever, now I just think that would give anything to enjoy a simple lunch with Babbo... and in this hope I will stay until I can ...
