Dear Tyler,

Hi my sweet son! How are you doing on this Sunday afternoon? Mom is doing alright. It is 4 pm and Mom just woke up from a little snooze. Guess I needed it. Today is cloudy and rainy. It's chilly. It is damp and only 74 degrees. We have a bit of wind so it makes it seem cooler outside. Mom and Mark were up at the same time this morning feeding the pups and taking them for their walk. We sat downstairs and visited with Meme. We had some breakfast and then came upstairs and got ready to go outdoors to the pool. Yup, Mark and Mom went swimming for a little bit. We put the pool heater on and let it warm to 80 degrees and we got in. Mom wanted to get some exercise in by doing laps. We swam around, listened to music and had fun. Mom got cold so she got out of the water, dried off a bit and came in, took a long hot shower and then got ready. Mark did the same thing. After that I did all the wet towels and laundry. Lunch time was right after. We are, did clean up and then Mark had a bit to do on his computer so Mom came into her office, sat in her glider rocker with a blanket and looked around on line and then was so tired I dozed off for 45 minutes.  I woke up to Mark saying something. I feel better now. I guess I tuckered myself out from swimming. Laundry is done, Meme is knitting and Bob is sleeping. Earlier he was acting weird. He was just sitting at his computer staring at a blank screen. It wasn't turned on or nothing. Meme said he was doing that all morning as wel . It was creepy. He still is not well. Tomorrow is their call and I hope he says something positive to help him. Mom has been watching but not saying much at all. Just observing and he is really declining rapidly. I think he knows it too and so don't we all but we say nothing. We are just letting him sleep all the time. It gives Meme a break when he does. She is stressed out most of the time. I worry about her. She has gained so much weight since we have been here. That is not good at all. I try to get her to go for a walk, to go swimming or just move her body and no luck. She just says no and gives an excuse saying it is too hit or too cold. I hope things change with her too. It's not a good path to be seeing. Please help us all, pumpkin. Mom needs you more than ever. I know you are constantly by my side and I appreciate more than words can express. Thank you my sweet precious son from the bottom of my heart 💗
 Today is April 5th. It is Palm Sunday. Next week is Easter. Doesn't even feel it or seem it at all with everything going on in the world right now. Numbers are rising, more getting worse, more deaths now. Almost everyone is quarantined in one way or another. We still continue to do our part by staying home almost always. We don't need anything at the grocery store right now. Maybe next week for milk and veggies but that is it. Post office once a week and other than that we are home. A friend of mine posted yesterday that her Dad has contacted the virus and has been in the hospital for the last 3 days. He has many underlining medical issues and he is struggling. The last thing I read about an hour ago was that this cruel virus was taking her daddy. He is failing rapidly and they can't see him, talk to him, be with him as he is going to make the transition from this world to paradise, as she calls it. Reading it just broke my heart. I teared up as there is no words that can make this better. Her and her mother and family will not even get to say goodbye or see him in his physical body form ever again. That is what is happening to all that contract the virus. If you pass away from it, they call the family and let you know. Their loved one's body gets taken away and cremated. No services can be held until all this passes. My heart hurts for anyone that is going through this. My friends Dad's name is Royal. I ask that his suffering stops and that he makes his way to paradise quickly. I know there are a few waiting for his arrival.... his mother in law, Dottie and Great Grammy. I have a feeling that later this evening or tomorrow morning I will be reading that he made his way to where you all are. 
 Mom will light a candle for you but also for Royal as well tonight. I will whisper to you later this evening before I go to bed so smile for me and I will smile to you. I think we will have dinner tonight, clean up after and then play cards for a bit. Hopefully Bob will join us but who knows. Later we will watch tv before calling it a night and going to sleep. Tomorrow is Monday again and Mark will be having a busy day and so will Mom. I have a few calls to make and then emails to write up. Also, I will be doing some studying in my class. I think I have test coming up as well. Mom will be back tomorrow with another letter to you. It is going on 4:40 pm. You know what time it is. Time to get the pups fed. It's raining out right now so their walk will be cut very short tonight. Meme is prepping dinner for us while I finish this letter to you. Have fun tonight while Mom is sleeping. Come visit me in my dreams if you can. I miss you so much and I love you to the moon and back and all the way around the world. You are my hero and the wind beneath my wings. Forever you live inside my heart,mind,body and soul. Fly high and free in the Heavens above. Until tomorrow comes....good night and sweet dreams, Tyler.
 Always, Mommy xoxoxo. Muah 💗
