Diary Entry #18

Sunday, April 26, 2020

I am finally back at the house after a long weekend, but without Nadley we got plenty done. All the logs are shaved and if my calculations are correct, we will be ready to put up the walls on top of what I have already done on the next workday. Gary had to return today too. He used up his vacation but he said it was the best damn vacation in six years. It reminded him of times we had when we were boys near the Tennessee river as boys. It did bring back memories. Last night we did stay up for a bit just to talk about the possibilities the nation now faced as MERS is no longer a possibility but a fact. I told him that this land was always open to him.

On a brighter note, Danny was very alert today when I stopped in at the hospital to see him. He seemed happy to see me for a little before slumping off into grim silence again. Cassy said he has been in a deep depression and slipping farther the longer he has been awake. They will be putting him on some anti-depressants tomorrow temporarily as he begins some therapy to deal with the loss of a limb. My Cassy has been dealing with him waking up in tears clutching where his leg would have been. I fear for him, I really do. I want my boy back and normal but I know that is a fantasy. He has lost part of him but now we need to find the new him before he slips into the darkness of suicide.
