Mama made it through the night last night. Today she’s been much less responsive, and in considerable pain. We’ve upped her dosage of morphine and her frequency of getting it. Her breathing sounds horrible. She’s virtually comatose. The swelling around her eyes has gone down some, so today she’s looked, around the eyes, more like her old self than she has in months. The lower part of her face is still swollen, but it’s good to see glimpses of my old Mama.

She had an episode of severe pain this evening that had her moaning horribly, and it was so hard to watch. It took a little while for the morphine to kick in, but it did, and she settled back down.

Her blood pressure was lower today than yesterday, her temperature up, her pulse up - all of these are signs of progression toward death. It won’t be long now. I pray for sooner than later, though I’m not sure I won’t regret that prayer when she’s no longer physically with us at all.

Anyway, it’s hard-going here, but I wanted to update you all.

Love to each of you.

You know...

Kay is going to love meeting Ronnie, and I’m loving the fact that I’ll know someone in that shining city upon a hill.

You are in my prayers. It is tough to watch someone you love die.

I am so happy you archived our thread on Kayak.

Kay was such a joy to work with...she was so humble and could not imagine why anyone would be interested in a thread about her. And she was absolutely adamant that we could not have a photo because she was not "photogenic" so we worked it up with a .gif of a kayak, lol. When she saw the draft of that, she sorta changed her mind and decided to send a photo. And we both assured her that she was very lovely and could not understand why she was hesitant to supply a photo.

At the time of the profile, she had not met many FReepers in person, except for CarolinaMom. She so enjoyed the FReep she did with her and their wonderful encounter with W.

I am very sad that she is losing her battle but know that the Lord will welcome her with open arms. She will be a beautiful angel.

This has got to be so hard for you and your Dad...bless you both as you spend this time with kay.

I am sure she senses you being there...and she will know that you were with her when she dies.

My prayers and thoughts are with you always..and with kay, that she may have no more pain.

You won't regret it honey. You only want your Mom to be eased of her suffering.We went through the same thing with my father. And yes, it was one of the hardest things I've ever done. I'm so glad you are there for her.

Your Mom was a great FRiend to my husband when we were looking at where to buy a business less than a year ago. Yesterday he talked fondly of their exchanges then, FReepmail and on board.

Our family's prayers are with you and yours, Poppy.

Father God, release this your servant into your presence. Please grace her family with your presence as well, and the joy of knowing that their loved one is with you and whole again.

Deep in the night, a prayer for you. When all is dark, do not despair - you are not alone. Surrounding you and your mother are the prayers of thousands, calling out to God in Jesus’ name.

it is hard to wait. Listen for the Angels...
