I am now 30, and my great uncle has been an absolute blessing to me up until this point. He is getting older, however, and is lacking spirit. Unfortunately, I am living over 1,000 miles away and cannot be by his side to cheer him up. I just had a new son recently and family life is taking up a good deal of my time. I am planning on purchasing a plane ticket for him to come from PA to FL to visit for his Bday. What could I plan that would be very meaningful to him and perhaps re-ignite the fire inside of him that once burned so strongly. He always used to say "Ahh, it's a great life"...now what i usually hear after we discuss past events is "Them days are gone" or "Yea, those were the days" spoken in as if defeated especially when i speak of things we did together. Please help calm my restless spirit that is torn between being by his side to the end and raising my family here in FL. Thank you and God Bless!
