"WHO WAS THAT LADY WE WENT TO SEE"?

LAST NIGHT MIKE ASKED ME THAT.  I WAS A LITTLE TAKEN BACK BECAUSE HE HAS SEEN MY SISTER MELA ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS OVER THE YEARS.  I TOLD HIM THAT SHE WAS MY OLDEST SISTER, AND HE SAID "REALLY"  I DIDN'T KNOW THAT!!  I GUESS IF HE DOES NOT SEE PEOPLE ON A REGULAR BASIS HE MUST FORGET WHO THEY ARE-WITH A FEW EXCEPTIONS I AM SURE.  HE SEEM TO HAVE A NICE TIME IN TAMPA-PLAYED A LOT WITH TRACI'S TWO SONS (BOTH SO WELL BEHAVED AND SWEET!), AND HER BEAUTIFUL DOG. HE READ ALL THE SIGNS ON THE ROAD ALL THE WAY THERE AND BACK.  THAT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING HE LIKES TO DO LATELY.  I AM USE TO IT NOW, BUT WHEN SOMEONE ELSE IS DRIVING IT IS KINDA SCARY THE FIRST TIME HE DOES IT.  HE JUST SHOUTS OUT WHAT EVER THE SIGN SAYS.  TODAY MIKE'S NURSE COMES, AND WE WILL SEE HOW MUCH MORE WEIGHT HE HAS LOST.  HE IS NOT EATING AS MUCH AS HE USE TO, AND I AM TOLD THAT IS NATURAL, BUT IT CONCERNS ME.  HE KEEPS TRYING TO FEED HIS FOOD TO THE DOGS WHEN HE THINKS I AM NOT LOOKING.  ONE OF THE FUNNY THINGS MIKE SAID YESTERDAY ON OUR WAY TO TAMPA WAS IN ANSWER TO WHAT "ROSIE" OUR NAVE SYSTEM TOLD US TO DO.  SHE SAID FOR US TO "BARE RIGHT", AND MIKE SAID I DON'T SEE ANY BEARS ON THE RIGHT. HE IS ALWAYS TRYING TO MAKE A FUNNY OR MAKE ME SMILE.  THERE JUST ARE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS HOW MUCH HIS ILLNESS HAS CHANGED HIM FOR THE BETTER.  IT WILL MAKE HIS PARTING SO MUCH HARDER FOR ME TO BARE.  I KNOW I AM NOT SUPPOSE TO THINK ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT NOW, AND JUST ENJOY EACH DAY WE HAVE.  YET WHEN MIKE MAKES COMMENTS LIKE "IT'S GREAT TO BE ALIVE" LIKE HE SAID YESTERDAY, I CAN'T HELP BUT GO THERE!!  WELL, I NEED TO GET SOMETHING FOR BREAKFAST-I ALREADY FED MIKE AND THE DOGS, SO I GUESS IT IS MY TURN.  HAVE A BLESSED DAY, AND REMEMBER TO THANK YOUR MAKER-JUST ME
