[Thespiritexpress] Oasis

[Ruth Dell'Ara]

Hi dear Lydia,

Thank you for your loving message about Oasis.  Not ever having been in
Oasis's home until last Tuesday, I loved its coziness and memorabilia
everywhere.  I am happy Oasis has been able to stay at home, and thank you
for your loving support.  It was very rewarding to see Serena and her love
for her Dad!  And Candy did visit while Mike and I were there.  Love is
radiating from her every pore!

Many hugs to you and Dennis,

XXXOOO

Ruth

Of The Journey

 

Hello Everyone,

 

Thought you might like to know that Oasis is resting so comfortably and
peacefully, covered by a warm blanket, breathing effortlessly. Candy Cole,
Oasis' special friend, was lying beside him on top of the covers.  She knows
how he likes to be tucked in, have his hands massaged, and she talks so
easily with him when he becomes aware of her presence--she can make him
smile.  He is clearly liking the serene atmosphere she brings with her light
and joyful spirit.  He asked for water, and Candy gave him some from a
straw, cautioning him not to drink too much.  Serena, Oasis' daughter, had
said that she is in favor of giving him anything he asks for.  She left a
while ago and Candy told me she plans to be back Sunday.  

 

Oasis recognized me as he looked out from his half-closed eyes and called me
by name.  I was amazed at how good his coloring is and how relaxed he looks.
Hospice was there today, took his blood pressure and I gather they will be
back next week.  Edward was taking a much needed break with his friends for
a couple of hours.  The peaceful silence was broken by the phone ringing,
and it was Alene checking on her and Riantee's time to sit with Oasis
tomorrow.  

 

Candy and I were saying to each other how glad we are that Oasis life was
celebrated by his many friends and family, and to have his friends support
his choice to leave his body now.  We were wishing that we could be so
blessed with friends and family around us when it is our turn to go.

 

Everybody I talked to is so very appreciative to the group of friends who
dreamed, and who were able to put it all together for Oasis, and for us.
Amazing how you exquisitely lovely people pulled it off and treated us to
delicious pizzas to boot!  Thank you!

 

With love,

Lydia
