Monday January 5th 9:30pm

Jake alive and sleeping peacefully. People continue to visit from everywhere. I have begun to try to put my feelings and thoughts into a video for myself family and friends. I believe I can do it but when I started to look at pictures I remembered a boy who had no cancer 2 years ago. I was shocked at his absolute beauty and comical poses. I have not seen that Jake for over 2 years. I had gotten used to the slow decline of his comical ways and the changing of his appearence, still an absolutely gorgous boy but now weary of this journey. The sparkle is still in his eyes and I feel that inside is a man who simply loves life and does not want to die. I have never felt so sad or powerless as I walk through this living nightmare. I will attempt to create a memory for all that will show the many sides of Jake some that only few have seen.

Take care Dan. We are here besides you to hold your hand, if not in body, then at least in spirit. May god bless both of you. We in India believe in re-incarnation, although it may be against your beliefs I dont know. However if such a thing exists I hope Jake comes back as your son again in another life and this time he lives it to the full. I know this pain of parting, having lost my wife about 2 and three quarter years ago and trying to bring up my two sons alone with some help from my om, who in addition has to care for an almost bedridden husban, my father. You have given me the courage to face these tribulations and not moan about them. God bless you.
