Lucidity – “Let’s Go Have Some Fun”

“This was taken on my father’s eightieth birthday. He’d been dealing with Parkinson’s for over a decade and had been diagnosed with a form of dementia partially related to a cancerous tumor behind his eye socket and the aggressive chemotherapy he’d received to save his life. This was a particularly lucid moment where he was cruising down the halls, his feet pulling him along, and giving thanks and saying hello to his caretakers as he passed them by. He was pretty excited that I was there at his nursing home to take him out for a few hours to celebrate.”
