Today was Bruno's 99th birthday. Bruce was on town. Lester and Myra, Greg and Barb, and Linda come to the house for cake. Naturally Arianna was in town too.
It's been increasingly difficult caring for Bruno. Sharon spends hours upon hours sitting with him at the dining room table fitting the pieces of a puzzle together that -- in contrast to even a year ago -- Bruno cannot manage on his own.
He's on and out. By that I mean he may or may not know who's talking to him. Today was no different and it was painful to watch him interact with his brother and his son.
But . . . it was not a bad day. We opened gifts, and joked, and had cake.
It was a day to celebrate.

Happy Birthday to you . . . .
Time to open gifts.
