more comfortable

Dad has been more comfortable the last couple of days with taking scheduled meds for pain, breathing, and restlessness.  He remains alert, but sleepy, and slept quite a bit today.  Yesterday's intake was a few sips of tea and a half a popsicle.  Today he's had a very small amount of water and half of a popsicle.  The weather remains so nice, and a year ago in this kind of weather, he would've been outside with the horses and working around the acreage.  I wish we could go back.....
