We met with the Dr's this afternoon. We sit here with tears in our eyes in so much pain tonight knowing that we will be removing my Dad from life support on Saturday. My Dad's brothers Danny and Paul, my Aunt Diane and cousin Danell are coming from North Carolina tomorrow. My Dad's sister Faith will be coming in from Dayton and his other sister Linda lives in Newark. We will not remove him until Sat. to give our family time to arrive here to spend time with him and we will have to say our good bye's Sat.

The Dr's told us that due to his condition he would never breath on his own again. He would need to be on a traque for the rest of his life and would have no quality of life. My Dad would not want to live like that. He enjoyed life and if he could not live then he would want to go on to be with the Lord.

Even though my Father is in a drug induced coma I spent sometime with him alone tonight talking with him telling him that Matt and I are so blessed to have him as our Father. I know I gave him and my Mom alot of grief in my younger years (you know how kids are growing up & being ADHD), but no matter what I did I knew he always loved me. He supported me in whatever I did and never judged me.... oh he gave his opinion, but whatever I decided he supported me. I know that we will have another special Angel looking over us.

Please continue to remember my Mom, my Brother, myself, my nephew, and the entire Ashcraft and Daulton family during this time.

Thank you all so much for your prayers the past couple weeks. You all are very special to us.

Phyllis, Perry, Matt, & Ian Michael

We Love you very much Dad xoxoxoxo..........................
