Maddie: dad, instead of singing me “hush little baby” can you sing me “take me out to the ballgame” because I love that song!
Me: I can do that.
Maddie: GOOD!
I’m raising her right

With Grandma by his side & holding his hand, Grandpa passed today. Their loving nurse Tiffany held his other hand as my step-mom Jenny could not. The news tonight will report an elderly man from central NE lost his life due to COVID-19. That man was my Gpa. George Widdowson. ❤️

Walking Squirrel thru the neighborhood. We walk by this house that we’ve walked by for years. Funny, I’ve been flying my Nebraska flag proudly for the 8 1/2 years I’ve been in this neighborhood. This is the first time I realized you were a CU fan.
Enjoy it.

So blessed. Gpa & Gma are in the same room. Side by side beds. He’s awake & on oxygen. 1st thing he says to me, “Hey! There’s old baldy!” Told him he’s a stubborn old farmer & keep fighting. He raised his fist, shook it & said “fight, fight, fight! We have musk thistle to cut.”

I’m calling Kearney Regional until I can connect w/ Nurse Tiffany again. She is a saint. Held my Grandpa’s hand as he passed & then cared for my Grandma until she was released a month later. She even bought Grandma new pajamas b/c a hospital gown is bleh. Tiffany is a HERO.

I sit here tonight overwhelmed by the love shown our family as this story unfolds. Gpa & Gma continue to fight. Saturday AM, my step-mom Jenny called. Later she said the pulmonologist gave Gpa 2, 4 maybe 6 hours. Well, I FaceTimed that stubborn old farmer this AM. Fight on Gpa.

My day ended with my mom telling me she is proud of me. She cracked a smile and said “I’ll race ya to Heaven. I’ll win!” I gave her a hug, told her and the staff goodnight. She said, “I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”
I certainly hope so. Nothing like a good cry in a parking lot.

My mom’s birthday is January 30th. Today and tonight I am going through her address book. Everyone that sent her a Christmas card is also getting a personalized note and getting her obituary to ensure they know what they meant to her and our family. Promise kept.

Just about an hour away from meeting my surgeon. Thank you to everyone that has been along for this journey. The texts. The DMs. The calls. I honestly don’t know if I would have been able to do this w/o all of you.
I didn’t think I would get this emotional but I’m crying. ❤️

We have an update from Katherine!
James is out of surgery and in recovery.
Surgeon said the spinal
fusion went very well, and they were able to get the pressure off the nerves.
James will be moved up to his room in a few hours.

GRANDMA > COVID-19
I just confirmed the news for the 2nd time with my cousin
@sdiaz526
but it is true. It happened. She won.
Grandma got her 2nd negative test result & was released today.
Grandma Helen is HOME! I’m going to cry some happy tears now.
We could use a win today. Grandma has continued to test COVID-19+. It’s now day 34-35 since she first showed symptoms. Need 2 negative tests in a row to get released to skill care & out of isolation. Medical staff didn’t test her last week just to give her a break. Exhausting.

*Update*
After much reflection, prognosis, prayer & knowing she has lived a full life...my mom has decided to forego further treatment. She looks to enter hospice in the coming days. She is at peace knowing that God will lead the way.
We all knew. Quality time > Quantity. ❤️
*Update*
I’ve told my family so now I can share the news with you.
My mom has cancer. Her legs went numb Saturday AM. They discovered a cancerous tumor in the thoracic vertebrae of her spine. They also found cancerous lesions along her entire spine, lung & adrenal gland. 1/x

I’d be remiss if I didn’t give thx today. I have depression & anxiety. I own it, it doesn’t own me.
Usually.
Almost 2 yrs ago it owned me. Bad. And I melted down on twitter.
So, thx for supporting me & my family. Then & now. Own it & stay strong.

Today was a sad, somber yet welcomed day. As a family & as a community, we were fortunate to gather to say goodbye & celebrate the life of George H Widdowson. The 21 gun salute by the American Legion was amazing. Wife Helen, 3 children, 9 grandchildren, 8 grandchildren. 21 total.

Back issues didn’t allow me to attend the Iowa game in person. Dropped off Katherine, Grant, B-I-L Bryant & niece Ella.
That said, I found an even better spot to watch b/c I’m warm, sipping a 13.4% ABV Zipline barrel aged Calavera stout & surrounded by the Maestas family!

Thank you everyone. Crying in a empty kitchen right now. I’ll be back; however, tomorrow I’m going home. Looking to seeing my family & getting big hugs from my kiddos.
My mom is at peace & pain free now. For that, I am eternally grateful. This hole in my ❤️ will never be filled.

Spine & Neurosurgery consult was originally set for 11/17. Called back & got a video chat on 11/1. Been calling 2x week for a possible cancellation.
Yesterday, lady said “I’m not supposed to do this but I’m taking down your info”
She called today. Consult is now 9/26!!

Called the hospital. Gpa & Gma are still fighting. She’s now off oxygen. Gpa didn’t want lunch but later asked for a Pepsi. That seemed to perk him up. Nurse I spoke to said she has never seen someone on this much oxygen remain in good spirits & not complain. He’s fighting 1/2

It’s now just after midnight in central Nebraska. I don’t have an update on my grandfather’s condition. And until I do, I’m going to believe that that stubborn old cattle farmer fought to see another day.
