I am posting this email from Amy Varga, Charles Erekson's daughter. You may not know but Charlie has lung cancer. Please pray for Charlie
Hi everyone,
Today was a beautiful day. 💜
As some of you know, my dad's condition took a swift turn at the end of last week and he ended up spending the last five and a half days in the ICU. My mom and I had one mission and it was to get him home -- and today we did.
He came home through hospice this afternoon. It's been so wonderful to have him back where he belongs. It's been so peaceful and full of joy. Marlo and Reid and all of us were together for pizza night with Papa tonight. It was perfect.
The days are likely short, so the time is precious. He's not up for calls or zooms but we are reading his texts and emails together every day. If you'd like to send him a video message, I know he'd love that - just text it to me (503-507-2034) or email it to me and I will share it with him. Or an old fashioned text or email works, too. I read him all of messages tonight. He's also loving all the cards and cherishing the words and stories you are all sharing with him.
My mom and I are together at their house showering him with love and caring for him together. These are precious days and times. Thank you for checking in and caring so much.
My dad loves each of you and all the ways you have made his life richer for being a part of it.
Love,
Amy
