I saw my brother two times this weekend. Once for thanksgiving dinner, once for breakfast on Sunday morning.
Thanksgiving went much better this year. We went to my son's fiance's parents' house for Thanksgiving. My brother fell asleep almost instantly for about a half hour. When he woke up, he was in good spirits. This year, my brother did not wet his pants, which was quite a problem last year.
When he came to my house earlier in the day, we discovered that his hearing aid was not working again, which made me feel pretty bad, because not being able to hear isolates. Plus I don't really like having to deal with this issue, it's a time sink, big time. I think I am going to but him a second hearing aid so that when one goes kaput, he has a backup. This is not a minor decision, it will cost at least $2000.
My two kids, who are now 20 and 29, went with me for breakfast today, and it was great. We had a good time. Again, he was in good spirits and very talkative.
all in all, a good weekend with my brother.
