I did not get to blog yesterday and I feel bad about it. I want to try to keep this going every day that I can. Forgive me, dear reader (so many of you I am sure..LOL). As for my personal life, today was difficult in many ways. But things get progressively better with the medication and CPAP so I am hopeful that soon I can live a life worthy of my younger days.
I got a message today from a friend, Fernando. For the past 20 some odd years, he has been taking care of his mother who has been suffering from MS. Today I found out that she passed and it breaks my heart for my friend.
Today, it is Fernando's day...Fernando, be happy and know that your mother is at peace and that she loved you very much. And she surely knew how much you loved her. Peace, my friend.

Can you hear the drums fernando?
I remember long ago another starry night like this
In the firelight fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now fernando
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid fernando
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And Im not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same againI would,
my friend, fernando
Now were old and grey fernando
And since many years I havent seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums fernando?
Do you still recall the frightful night we crossed the rio grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight for freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same againI would,
my friend, fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
Theres no regret
If I had to do the same againI would,
my friend, fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, fernando...
