Andrew developed pneumonia again and, due to his already weakened system from the first bout of pneumonia, it was decided to stop all treatments.  Hospice was called in yesterday and we brought him home today.  He has wanted to see the puppies since he was admitted March 28 and has wanted to come home since then.  We made both things happen today.  He is being given comfort measures and is surrounded by all the family and pets.  He sleeps most of the time and seems content when he is awake.  Our time is very short and everything within out power is being done to keep him comfortable.  He is certainly surrounded by love...........

Hi Ben,
 
Yes - we have a new computer and are on DSL and get our messages (also on msn for the present)
but now mostly on obmb@hotmail.com.  Can you send the messages there?  I found the ones we are missing by going to the address you suggested; however, have not yet been able to find "Airborne Jump with Combat Equipment".  I’m working on it - new equipment sometimes presents some problems. 
 
As always, thanks for your help - it is appreciated.
 
Oscar just got his electric cart, so it is easier for him to get around.  For some reason, his legs just refuse to work as they were meant to do.

Hi again, Ben,
 
Just was able to bring up "Airborne Jump with Combat Equipment" really great - Oscar watched it with me and he recalled that when he jumped in Southern France he had 101 lbs of equipment.
 
Thanks again, Ben - don't know what we would do without you.
