Visited Bruce Thompson and his lovely and devoted wife, Karen, this afternoon(live about 50 miles from the VA). Brought them a card and flowers noting they were from all his IHUB computer BB friends, hope no one minds. Told both they have been in our thoughts and prayers for a long time.
Afraid the end is near as Bruce is no longer talking or taking any nourishment other then droplets of water. Karen said he has dramatically declined this week and today has been very trying as he needs restraining at times even thought he cannot stand.
She thinks he can hear and understand, but not sure. He did smile a little when I told him I was from and represented all his friends from IHUB, even asked him is he was ready to build me a computer.
Both Bruce and Karen have a very strong faith and their church members have helped them immensely. Despite everything Bruce has went through for over a year last week was the first time he missed the weekly church service. What a testament to his faith.
Karen thanks us all for the cards and prayers. Karen is a wonderful woman and wife to Bruce. Unfortunately, their time together isn't what was anticipated. Keep them both in your prayers.
