The time has come I fear. Mom has declined fast over the last four days. She is declining faster than even Hospice expected. They now anticipate her to last 24-96 hours. We are spending a lot of time with her in these final moments. We have told her that it is ok and that we will be fine, although the tears are getting harder and harder to hide.

I love her so much, and yet, goodbye does not seem to say enough.


Love is given without the need for receipt

May Angel wings beat softly, fold gently, and surround you with the warmth of love. The "job" you have done so well is done. She is in Professional Hands now; it's your time to rest and find peace.
