This morning I got the first dreaded call, "Your mother has taken a turn for the worse." I rushed down the interstate to be with her.
She has Leukemia and the last word on it, well she was given six months to live. Tomorrow will be six months.
Tonight they started her on morphine. They'll "keep her comfortable" and well, you know...at least I imagine you do.
I have come home, my neck hurt, my head hurt, my heart hurts.
I will wait for a call and if no call tonight, I will visit her in the morning and sit with her.
She said a while back she doesn't want a bunch of people sitting around her holding her hand feeling bad and crying. We won't. However, today, she held my hand while she laid in bed, even while she was asleep. Bless her heart.
Love to you all and give yourself a hug from me.
