It’s hard to believe Dad has been home for just over a month now. The Hospital, the Skilled Nursing Facility, all the places spent visiting, spent living in, for four and a half months have begun to fade away like “tears in the rain” (to quote Rutger Hauer from the movie Blade Runner). Winter seemed so long this year, although I’m sure it was no longer or shorter than years past. But nature has “popped” the last two weeks in Maine, greening everything up with the sights and smells of spring, allowing the cruel winter to disappear from memory, much like Dad’s stay away.
