The look on my dad's face was pure happiness. He was trying to act cool about it but he couldn't hide a childlike mirth that seemed to radiate out of him. You have work to do, I chided him with humor. I have accomplished my goal of getting a show for us this coming October. It was so good to see his obvious delight. For a moment he was moved as I commented on all of the people we could invite. He fought back some tears, as he has since his cancer at times. It is as if life touches him more since these days almost feel stolen from death that was so close before. It felt good to give this back to him.
