"Thurepe" Therapy

On Father’s day I suggested we play Thurepe( a card game from Kerala.) It is also known as 28. Growing up this is what we all did for fun. I thought it would be enjoyable for old time sakes; it turned out to be therapy for my dad’s recovery. My dad was always good at the game, he usually won. Most of the time while we were there, my dad looked week and tired. It was so cute to see his smile as he was winning; it was really therapy for all of us. The boys and Cruzan Dad caught on to the game quickly, and I am looking forward to many games with the family.

We played almost every afternoon.
