Trip to New York
Posted: Fri May 16, 2008 4:48 pm
It appears pretty likely I'll be in New York, probably next week. But not, alas, for a happy reason.
Our doctors tell us my grandmother has more lives than a cat. My little brother describes her as having more fight than a battalion of marines. But this battle can have only one conclusion, and it appears to be rapidly approaching.
My grandmother is conscious and (generally) lucid but not comfortable. Most of my family is with her. The DNR order has been signed and the entire family is on board. She reached her 96th birthday last month, but it doesn't look like she'll ever get home to hear the birthday message I left on her machine.
Please join me in hoping for a comfortable passing. And please keep her older sister in your thoughts as well. --Bob
